Break the Wall

BREAK THE WALL

                                                         
The wall of differences that tore us apart,
Keeps standing in words of sightless and visionless minds. 
As thick  as the wall of our  differences; resist the  voice  of colours. 
roofs are leaking;
The wall of  greed  that invented  our differences; 
When broken, new wall of  patriotism, will spiral- bound  nations. 
The walls of  ancient values  are falling  and depreciating.
The wall  between the rich and the poor gradually closing its gap,
As the roof leaked reports. 
Break the walls, break the  inequalities of colors on the  walls,
All colors on the wall, spin  story on eyes. 
Break the wall of currency and build lasting wall of economy;
Break the wall of  titles and retain honor.

Break the wall of  rich and the poor; then, the economy  will spin round quickly.
Erecting  the wall  of  victimization;  civilization  stands  no value. 
Hands and voices are waiting to break the wall of  ethnic  divisions;
Wall of religion differences that spiral out  tension and blood;
That makes  our  salubrious world   horror of horrors.   
Who dare  to  break the wall?  
Either  they that erected  it or those that will never forget  the pains.
The hands  of the  incarcerated  and those who bore  scars of  marginalization  are relentlessness.  
The wall must be broken; either in peace or in blood.
