Goodwill

Stop this make believe Demon-cratic catechism,
And let the people decide Democratically!

 "Goodwill"



Let there be peace, do not antagonize.
History will show us that killing people 
Is not an act of constructive intelligence. 
Before threating to kill make a deal to build.

The order of the planet is creative rhythm
In harmony with the universe and life;
There is no space for belligerent toys.

We live in a Cyber World, don't blindfold 
Our bio-sight with pulluting guns' smoking.  
Don't forget that just one click can wipe out 
Any nation; and two clicks can erase the Earth
From the galactical book, leaving no witness.

Stop this make believe Demon-cratic catechism,
And let the people decide Democratically!

You have to be careful of the demon that enters the mix with his sly words, of just do it, as it won't harm you. Believe me the demon is real and it is we who are demoncratic when right or wrong is the way to go. Even in a society that is DEMOCRATIC at times.

A poem for our times. It needs to be read by those in power. While they will not acknowledge it, they will feel the sting of its words and no longer feel safe in their thoughts of nationalism and "security."

People have a real problem with, "turn the other cheek," especially the most religious ones. But Jesus, Gandhi, the Dalai Lama, Martin Luther King and others show the right way to defuse our anger at one another. And it works far better than war.

As Josey Wales said, People can get along, governments can't. And nations that trade with each other generally don't fight with each other.

I agree! We all (most of us civil folks) want peace!
However, what if a terrorist blows up your house because you do not "fit in" with the way of life they want you to live?

That's what is happening today.
So how can we just make-believe it will GO AWAY????
