A royal line today, endears~ I feel hopeful flowing are my tears, whilst monks walk for peace —Quote by Poet
Simplicity brings them together They trudge with harmonious love An indelible flash these birds of a feather Sharing the path with the white dove Solemnly saunter across the western world Spanning the continent, they tour in rows A peace march of ochre-orange parasols unfurled Illuminating passage, flames of melodious flows Embodying trails opaque, a still inertia within The elements exposed, cloaked in dirt successive Shallow robes of saffron drapes weathered skin Lanterns glow thru paths congestive Miles of pavement ‘neath calloused bare feet Lauded Buddhist Monks walk for peace A simple task, that ill will cannot defeat a w a l k f o r p e a c e Owing to pirahnic complicity in large scales Whose causes and effects abet imbalance Those who fold together, the greediest fails Unhinged acts of hate they’ll plant the seeds Of unborn ominous events, giving life to malice Consume like carrion crows, dirty deeds of vultures To whom dine and drunk from the blooded chalice And all who are alongside these canceled cultures Only dark murmuration for these birds of a feather Soon to slump by the wayside—they'll fall together MLK Jr. DAY 1/19/26
