If it is lived from our point of view!
Although our values are flawed,
And we are awed by conflict.
…with a touch of war and self-obsession.
Our abilities to reflect,
How we expect to be treated…
Falls short of our actions,
Observed but unbelieved!
Hypocrisies are a given…
As empathy is shown,
In many charitable ways!
And this we insist to be,
A factor well known!
Grace upon the arrival of each day.
And blessed we are,
To inflict this advantage!
However…
There is a self-righteousness,
In the standards we embrace.
And we are unable to face,
A divisiveness that splits and stays!
Although a wholesomeness about it,
Is daily portrayed as we employ our joys…
By a propaganda marketed without delay!
With the best of subliminal injections.
Leaving nonconformists much annoyed!
And this we insist is diplomacy,
If understood…
How it could and should be convinced,
In movements actually lived!
