I looked in the mirror, A RAW reflection

As I look within me and beyond all animations
I gathered the conflicts of your retaliations
I watched within these eyes of mind
beyond the darkness, in a space of mine

How can wants, take, and hand a child their strife
When their arms explode the innocent life?
Their surface reveals all offspring traditions
while their legs stand on tables of contradiction

I looked in the mirror, A RAW reflection

My eyes can see each proud demonstration
And their flags still wave in songs of nations
Mock and mimic, O’ bloodless tongue!
I can hear now, how your bells have rung

The guns will blast in postulate chatter
While nations recline in their lipid matter
Someone, up there, must have turned out the light
For dawn now darkens our early light

I looked in the mirror, A RAW reflection

Now, an image reflected, when I looked straight at me
But,we can’t see behind all the worlds vanity
The straightedge will shorten, in lengthy a rage
So all pray for wisdom from our Omniscient sage

Stay within and surround, one world of peace
Don’t look in the mirror with such furrowed crease.
Shovels only dig greed and bury us more

I looked in the mirror and I saw WAR
