The great divide between our cultures...and what they could have too if they turned their swords to plowshares.

Far Away
Mad scientists breed biological horrors.
Here
My niece smiles as she opens her presents.
Far away
Afghan thugs beat their terrified women.
Here
Lisa sighs gratefully as I rub her back.
Far away
A mob chants for vengeance and killing.
Here
A crowd sings along for King's X.
Far away
A tortured mule dies of starvation.
Here
An ecstatic dog barks in welcome.
Far away
Madmen choke to death on hatred.
Here
There is
So Much
Love.
