The World Journeys On
Walk past the killing fields, the oil spills, the famished,
the residents of the streets, the unemployed, the smallpox
patients, the corporate scandals,
the greed, the human rights
violations, the court battles, the domestic
abuse, the racial
inequality, the prejudice and bias, the nuclear
weapons
buildups, the arsons and rapes and abductions and media
blitzes,
the jihads and crusades, the cold war, and the hot war,
and the war without
words that sucks
the soul out of the living...
Walk past it all, and
you have a beautiful world.
