When Our World is Well

Pay Strict Attention ~ Philip Brent Harris

~~~~~

When our world is well, once again,
And we no-longer shelter-in-place,
Will we return to stress and strain,
Smile in greeting, afraid to embrace?

When our world is well, once again,
Will it all be like it was just before,
Forced to put life over death, pain,
To feel safe when we lock our door?

When our world is well, once again,
Will the rich still control all the rest,
To profit from drugs, war, profane?
Such greed sent many to eternal rest.

When our world is well, once again,
Will life still be all push and shove?
Will time we’ve had to reflect gain
The time we need to embrace love?
