-inevitablefuture

We have our leaders, Good or Bad
Not so equal in mind nor sight of 
Yet somehow in the twisted blank of idiocy 
Men try to equate all mankind the same
Not in freedom, culture, wealth, nor prowess  
no ideology of Geographic, will ever think like
Hate is the heart of envy, greed, power, wealth
So why in Gods Name then, can we ever believe in peace
When we become hungry, thirsty, lustful or greedy
Men become the beasts we can be, and the innocent
Become Expendable……Not Hopeless, but by Nature
Fear is the catalyst for the stampede…what is left of
Hope?, to survive………….Good LuckWith that, as Hate
Sucks the blood of Love and what remains runs down 
The street with your soul, trampled by the hooves of 
History…it’s insane I know yet there is always that 
Seed waiting in humanity………..compassion.
