COURAGE

 

History Shows Us That When
Faced With Incredible Violence,


Most Of Us Humans Have Been Able
To Rely On The Power Of Peace


Within Us All To Deny
The Cowardice Of Violence;


That Is The 'Out' For Us All
When We Are Denying Ourselves


The Power Of Peace
That We Were All Born With;


The List Of Peaceful Humans
Murdered Over the Last 100


Years May Seem Endless
But It Is Finite;


And To Try To List The Names
Of All The Humans On The


Planet Who Have Died In
The Name Of Peace Would


Be Futile As So Many Of Us
Have Died Anonymously;


Don Cheadle's Character In
Hotel Rwanda Says...


"The President Signed for Peace.
Why Did They Kill Him?"


Martin Luther King, Bobby Kennedy,
Nelson Mandela, Jesus Christ,
Cesar Chavez, Buddha Sakmyuni, And Gandhi
All Called For Peace In The Face Of Violent Oppression...


Slave Societies Try To Find Honor
In A World That Is Ruled By Those
Of Us Who Cannot Seem To Move Ahead
With The Species And Have Reverted
Back To The Animality Of Our Ancestors
Through Denial Of Our Human Spirit;

The Country Of South Africa Has Been
A Site for Hell On Earth For Centuries.


The Stray Dog Mentality Of The Planetary
Violator Had Practiced Hierarchy-Flogging


To Accomodate Their Lack Of Honor
Towards The Planet And Its Species
And Create A Slave Society Designed
To Enrich The Minority.


Rape of the Planet For Precious Materials
Needed To Compensate For The De-Humanized


Condition Of The Back Of The Herd
Feeding Straggler Eaters And Parasites of Humanity.


Precious Gems Are A Poor Replacement
For That Which We Were All Born With


But Had To Turn Our Backs On
Indicated By The Awkwardness of Silence...
