Ascend the Circle

So we keep failing
Whilst the children are wailing
The strife, the blight, the pity
Scattered minds in a crowded city
Can't we hear the message?
Can't remember the aim
Drain, drain, drain
 
Out of Africa
Into South America
Cross the wide sea
No pity, no pity
Dispersed, immersed, submerged
Driven,imprisoned, risen
To what? A bat!
Knowledge denied
Division ensued
With blind faith
We ascend the circle.

And that should be enough with just faith alone. Faith will right us and set us in the right direction! Love it, Robert :)

This poem can be read from bottom to top and it will still make sense.
