Eliminate Disorder For Good

Ensnared in greed’s deadlock Where I can’t open the lock To the barn in which kindness stock That humankind in its hour of need Longs to free its soul from the greed That frustrates the compassion feed To save humankind from self destruction Embedded in the social malfunction In need of urgent rehabilitation and action To braid the dreadlock On which the empathy cock Banishes spirits that mock Restoration of rights unbroken For the poor and the vulnerable forsaken In curses in verses spoken In tones filled with foresight Both during the day and at night To remove the blight That bedevils my society In every manner variety That overlooks satiety Which unless cured To remove injustice lured Into chords featured In bonds of slavery That overlook bravery To promote the delivery Of a more just social order Which melts the border Between fairness and unfairness for good removes disorder.
