Eden had no fences until man came

sorenbarrett

Eve stole the apple from the tree, forbidden knowledge to see 
Cain killed Abel in this biblical fable, all over jealousy
Since then man did fight for master's right to property
A bloody hand a struggle over land, failing to understand nature is free

 

An Israelite a Palestinian does fight, a blood feud from long ago 
A Russian a Ukrainian is crushen, over ancestral land of endless woe
Over oil thirst Venezuela immersed, Maduro is ripe to go 
Up to this day it has always been this way, we fight for land and water's flow

 

We don't understand that no one owns land, it belongs to one and all
Just like air its for all to share, no matter how big or small
No government should tax mansion or shacks, what our home we call
Land has no border, no God given order where a fence should fall

 

To own land or sea it the same as slavery, you don't own such things
It's like a fight over owning day or night, its misery that greed brings

      Thanks Orchi I appreciate the read and comment. Giving her apples with worms just broadens her food groups giving protein and meat with the fruit group.
