Written for Three Word Wednesday.
The words this week: acrid, bane, tepid

I don’t think it’s human nature to learn from past horrors.
Everything is cyclical ThomG, the good things as well as the horrors. Thanks for stopping by.
All the greed we see today and the deceit and the pelf
were definitely not taken off some old book shelf
they were all waiting for a chance to come out of our self
and to blame the past to say history sure does repeat itself.
Actually this is a comment I wrote for some other blog but felt it was apt here too. Vivek, good work,short and sweet.
Thanks Govind. I agree everything is within the self..waiting to come out
Interesting take ! and a good one too.
Thanks for the comment ladynimue
Short-term profits often seem to take precedence over the long-term good. To some degree it’s human nature, but that doesn’t mean we can do no better.
The tepid reaction that is a bane to the very existence of us humans leaves an acrid taste in the mouth. Short and well done as usual 🙂
