Revolution

Revolution brings on confusion and eventual conclusion...

                                    “REVOLUTION”


 


    I think the Beatles sang it best,


    Washington and his army made it their quest,


    Abbey & his group said, “Question Authority”


    While Moses & the Israelites had on their side the 


                    Almighty…


 


                Revolution,


                War,


                Civil unrest,


                Rioting,


                Gangs,


                Road rage,


                Anger,


               


    All mean the same to me,


   What can be done to alleviate the above?


   That is what I cannot see,


   When kids, we were, all this was not an issue,


   We had “war games” of our own without


                        misuse…


 


   Our children now, have so much to live for,


   But will they see their adulthood?


   And be able to live in peace without fear?


   Which among them will be the next


                  revolutionary?


 


      Revolution brings on confusion,


 And so it is said will bring on an eventual


              conclusion…


 


 Maybe we would all be better living in a fantasy world of Lilliputians…
