People Over Politics, World Over Wealth

Wars are fought in many lands.
Some we’ll even deign to name.
These usually involve our friends,
friends of our enemies, at least.
It’s how the big boys play. That’s
what we tell ourselves, yet only
little boys still play at war. What
does that say about us? Whether
we fight as nations or neighbors,
do we know if we really have any
stake in the fight? Despite what
we are told by our governments,
general, leaders, potentates, popes,
or cousin Bob. We are so petty,
we invent differences and call
them truth, obscured by the duty
we choose, or is chosen for us.

Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment

Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,

Unite the World
