Where Am I

Good thoughts vs. Bad Thoughts Truth vs. Lies Order vs. Disorder Wisdom vs. Ignorance Wealth vs. Poverty Honor vs. Dishonor When did pride, power and politics Replace justice When did protection become persecution When do politicians pretend to be priest When is instead of land there is an empire When did leaders claim rulership And earthly alliances no longer perfect A cross and a collar A reward to be won A badge and a suit A responsibility to some A uniform and a gun Killing for their rightousness begun Citizens with a country and agreement Rising like the sun An employee who's duties are not connected to funds All are connected in what you teach your sons There's no need for a book To tell you what's the truth But when the answers are pride. greed and laziness When the answers are Why, no and what for When the answers should be I feel, I will and I've done Bravery does not defeat fear What's required is faith When reason , logic and philosophy are starring us in the face.
