Love, Peace, and Harmony

Discrepancy is an economic thing. Have you ever known this to be anything else? Money is the great separator of togetherness. Man rob, steal, and kill just for the feel of its illicit presence. Woman will sell, which defines exploitation, steal from you, and lie on thy neighbor for just a little wealth. These concepts are aspects of someone’s life. Crime becomes escalated and mental health becomes the strife. The minister said within his blackness, “There has to be a better way.” However, there is no reason for this other than the lack of fulfillment and/or greed. As a poet and philosopher, I respond, “We have to help everyone to overcome poverty.” Note, the media and academia went on “The Tour on Poverty.” When they reported out, they showed how the Great Depression of 2008-2009 had affected the workforce and the home front. Why are we not upset to see people living in poverty? Academia stayed East and this made it seem that North, South, and West were the greatest downward spiral. Therefore, I present to you The School of Social Theology. The School of Social Theology is a new school of thought that states poverty is melodramatic to us not being there for our family and what friends we are. We live well but we do not offer the same to all. The School of Social Theology seeks eradication of social injustice to state poverty must end. If you are working to end social injustice, today will not be the same as tomorrow... A fight against social injustice is a fight for social justice! _____________________________________________| Sponsor: Charlotte Puddifoot Contest Name: Random Mix
