Forsake your devotion
to predicament and discord
Break the tradition
of rivalry and curse
Quick while there’s time
Uproot hostility
Claim your humanity
Insist on brotherhood
Open your fists
into embraces
Open your arms’ length
into loving circles
Remove every roadblock
to the peaceable kingdom
Outnumber the hawks
Outdistance the angels.
James Broughton from “Prayers for a Thousand Years” |
