Replying to a comment on:

ENIGMA, WONDER, BEASTLINESS AND FURY (Free verse) by Gopakumar

Rotates the Globe Revolves the Globe Yet a plain ground it is For all our plays and fights; Indeed, enigma of nature – it is. Rotates the Globe Revolves the Globe Yet the great bowl seldom spills Though waves lashes and retreats; Indeed, enigma of nature – it is. Home on the Globe Grave inside the Globe Yet man’s rockets reach space And return to enrich him; Indeed, wonder of science – it is. Home on the Globe Grave inside the Globe Yet man could split atoms And steal the hidden energy; Indeed, wonder of science – it is. Home on the Globe Grave inside the Globe Yet man’s rockets hit cities And rip apart bodies and minds; Indeed, beastliness of man – it is. Home on the Globe Grave inside the Globe Yet man could split humanity And build walls all around; Indeed, beastliness of man – it is. Rotates the Globe Revolves the Globe Yet can shake when it wants Turning temples to rubbles; Indeed, fury of nature – it is. Rotates the Globe Revolves the Globe Yet can splash its bowl when it wants Swallowing all that comes in the way; Indeed, fury of nature – it is.

A good concept, and with very good construction. So much truth in what you have written here. "beastliness of man," the cause of it all to start with. And I am not refering to the gender, but man, as in a whole, the human race. And the fury of nature, I guess because I am 3/4 Native American, or perhaps others may believe the same, but I do believe nature gets angry and lashes out.
