Injustice and Me
Verily verily you are not all alone
Unfairness has stayed with us history has shown
Injustice to anyone is injustice to me
I lament any injustice to those yet to be
Everyone is part of the universal soul
For whom the proverbial bell truly does toll
Across our globe intolerance moves listlessly
Through compassion we find Blessed Community
I mostly worry about what I cannot see
It is on us to secure our own destiny
In united lands of the indivisible
A strong siege rages over the individual
It takes but one wise being to add to us all
One defining link between our victory and fall
Once this epic battle has been finally won
Thereby it will certainly be all said and Donne
Tribute poem to John Donne with further reference
and accreditation to Martin Luther King, Jesus Christ
and Buddha
