2781

Searching for the truth 

Causes some confusion 

With all the angles 

It becomes an illusion 

 

The game is rigged 

A lay down hand

Hatred and oppression pervades the land 

 

How can this be so

Is man so shallow 

Doesn't he know 

 

Do unto others 

Was the command 

Love your enemies 

Who can stand?

    Turn the other cheek and forgive is the commandment. Love thy neighbor and your enemies.

    Unfortunately, yes; man does seem so shallow. Enough to be destroying this planet, the only one we have. This terrifies me. Good job.

      One generation passes away, and another comes: but the earth abides forever.
      We are on shakey ground though!

      If only the leaders of the world could see that this is the way to go 2781 we would be in a wonderful place.
