Some effort is needed

Our world is topsy-turvy, is it not,
as man fans fires of lust, in form of dust,
with lessons of love having been forgot,
engaging in actions harsh and unjust?

First love enablement, next then wisdom
and only at a later stage power, 
was optimal to enter God’s kingdom,
allowing boons of grace to empower.

Perhaps there’s a method in the madness,
of man’s orchestrated evolution
but what we see are souls plunged in sadness,
needing feral ego’s dissolution.

Accepting what is as is, let’s refine
consciousness and with pulse of love align.
