Plateau of Reality


Residing in a world of perception,
what is, and is not, a state of mind,
much is based solely on deception,
lost forever in the corridors of time.

Children learning, being taught,
programing each and all as one,
truths mixed with selfish thoughts,
drones of beings when it’s done.

History shows, repeating the past,
happening now, it will happen again,
up to us to ensure it does not last,
a self-serving predator is not a friend.

Suicide bombers program since birth,
a pitiful example of misguided souls,
sadly allowed to wander the earth,
killing the incident with a deadly toll.

We must fight each day, just to live,
suppressing adversity we do fight,
teaching love, respect, and to give,
bringing peace, harmony in the night.
