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.
