It’s not the mindset we carry
From the hoods of childhood
That imprisons us in cocoons.
Know what?
It’s not the ephemeral drumbeats
Or the jingles of commercialization
That drives humanity close to insanity.
Know what?
It’s not the termination of seasons
Or the flowery flannels of reasons
That cultivates the so-called culprits.
No!
Know what?
It’s the meandering
Of greediness
It’s the gerrymandering
Of pettiness
It’s the festooning
Of hopelessness
It’s the harvesting
Of inhumanity
It’s the demeaning
Of humanity
And the flapping
Of dry wings
That has left humanity in the dungeons
That has caused sufferings and deaths
And strangled the beauty out of earth!
