The World In Our Hands

The world in our hands would impair devils
An unthinking thought more blissful
Than a wish fulfilling shooting star

Our missions would be charted out
To go on our victory dance one step at a time
For peacefully unifying the global eye

The lines in the hand of child would be uncorroded 
With the scavenging paedophiles detonated 
And their gardens be filled with natural joys and play

Food for the starving would be an essentia
Hunger and water a distant call before going to bed 
Appetising the poor rather than greasing over fed palettes

We would delve deep into the human vein
Gushing with a universal religion of tolerance
That binds all colours rather than undermining faiths

Gigantic deeds would keep gory bloodsheds at bay
And young valiants would keep hearts of their fair
In strongholds for inopportune cataclysms

Global warming would be of a season gone by
Aerial reforestations and seed bombs for divergent climes
Would be the neatest stuff rather than bloody nukes

A day will come when life begins once again
When dragons burn out the archetype evils and
Dying values will sprout worldwide deliverance once again
