Enlightened

There’s no hope for humanity A half-wit would think otherwise. Collective Christianity With its many brethren allies Have failed its purpose for Christ’s sake! With their arsenal of prayer beads, Missals and psalms- they are opaque Tools employed that never succeeds In changing the nature of Man: He is still greedy and hostile Unchanged since first set foot on land They’re members of this rank and file: A congregate hypocrisy Only the enlightened can see.

Powerful and raw and well done, very thought provoking, greed to me is the essense of all wars, and failures of man in this world. In my enlightened mind, I seek peace and tranquility in my life, I cannot change the world, but perhaps even to inspire one person to see peace is the way, is a good thing...love Constance
