Class race religion which can most money make

Prod not the elements fierce dragons can wake

Villanelle: The Dilemma of the Non-Violent – 48

Prod not the elements fierce dragons can wake
Tsunamis El Ninos smog haze acid rains
Anger of the Heavens lightning thunder quake

Qian the Father Kun the Mother did hands shake
But Eldest Son Zhen can put mankind in chains
Prod not the elements fierce dragons can wake

Final signs there to see which we still forsake
Can World War scenarios depict real pains
Anger of the Heavens lightning thunder quake

Class race religion which can most money make
What takes over countries do it for its gains
Prod not the elements fierce dragons can wake

Mythic gods we concoct for our ego’s sake
Have not they all harmed us more than mindless brains
Anger of the Heavens lightning thunder quake

Nation States make fated World we must un-make
The single choice One Race One World or HELL reigns
Prod not the elements fierce dragons can wake
Anger of the Heavens lightning thunder quake

- End of Part Two

Hail Monseigneur (the French reserve this appellation for Kings/Emperors
and theor ilk) Don Ron ! Got your message about Tom & Nancy, but I thought Lefty lived in Washington? He shore got me mixed up and muddled. Be that as it may, is this line of yours true to fact: 'Every time evil arises to try to take over the world, good karma comes along to defeat it like you have illustrated.'
The "good karma" of post-WWII America, for instance, could have avoided the greatest disaster in human lives (women and children, the old and the decrepit, the sick in mind and the blind, the food-providing animals and the joyously-singing birds, not to mention pregnant women, animals, birds and insects about to bring forth their young...) during the few extended seconds of HELL-on-Earth at Hiroshima (and to repeat the "karmic action" at Nagasaki a little later) if they had had wanted to avoid Man's inhumanity to Man and all blameless creatures by inviting Tojo and his needlessly violent clan to a demonstration of Nuclear Power at some deserted Pacific Isle. Don't you agree, Monseigneur?

Once again you've outlined what causes war and why it is so hard to eradicate, even with nonviolent protest.

"Class race religion which can most money make," outlines the cause that keeps us in perpetual war. Every time evil arises to try to take over the world, good karma comes along to defeat it like you have illustrated.

Why in our Civil War, the South chose Dixie describing their white only, slave labor created, idyllic lifestyle as their anthem. While the North, more pragmatic, chose The Battle Hymn of the Republic with its fiery lines… "He has loosed the fateful lightning of his terrible swift sword…" to help rally the troops having to fight their own brothers in the South. Sometimes, eye to eye with bayonets.

Ron
