Beat Goes On |

Guardians of Evil ~ Philip Brent

Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,
Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment

Beat Goes On

I’m beating the same themes
And so I’ll pound them again
Since the peace I seek seems
A consensus exacting to gain
It may stay forever unbidden
Until you dovetail my dreams
Remain a horse never ridden

Let’s give up any nation, state
Based on geographic localities
In groups we create, why wait
Without a risk to our identities
Be citizens of our convictions
Enmities abjure, wars abdicate
Peace in history, our depiction

People with the most live best
Their desires, their only hymn
They’ve no care for all the rest
Only how we may serve them
Our hijacked youth sent to die
Realize the answer to this test
Walk away, don’t heed the lie
…………

Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,
Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment
