Remember

For every war fought for petty issues For every bullet penetrating man’s tissue, For all the men fighting for the land they represent Remember, that all men on earth are children of the same ancestral parent For every drop of water we waste For all the food we buy just for the pleasure of taste For every grain of rice carelessly thrown Remember, the poor child starving in lands where crops cannot be grown For every whistle blown demeaning a woman For all the nasty comments disgracing a woman For all the in-humane crimes committed in lust for a woman Remember, every man was once born of a woman For all the money that is corruptly sought For every innocent man, for no reason shot For all lies, big or small Remember, in the end, in front of The all-seeing God, on our knees we’ll have to fall
