In An Ideal World
if only we could all...
find...
peace in war, beauty in ugliness.
construct...
and not dismantle each other.
offer help...
to all who need it.
try to understand...
people, cultures, religions
and perspectives alien to us
instead of rushing to condemn.
exponentially favor...
what unites us
over what divides us.
control...
anger; never allowing it
to take plenary control of us.
accept all people...
for whom they really are,
as opposed to dismissing them
for being "different"
wouldn't that be a wondrous thing? just imagine!
all humanity
would be gold
in bright sunshine.
