A Lesson in Harmonics

Exploration is important
for those who don’t succeed
in mixing with other creeds,
reproducing with other breeds.

Vision is always blanked
when limited to things
you only want to see,
such carelessness that breathes.

Killing those you’ll never meet,
or talk to over tea,
when we send them overseas
without a manual for peace.

Telling our kids that
playground fighting is obscene,
you should act better, yes indeed,
now do some homework, now go read.

But the lies they print on pages
for their youngster eyes to see
don’t tell them of the pain
of those you forced to bleed.

Instead we choose to mislead,
without teaching them to think,
and by the time they wear their special robe,
you’ve gone on to succeed.

This can’t be what they taught
inside the capital of Greece.
A focused life ain’t focused
if it’s focused on money.

So kill the greed,
hatred release,
burn all thoughts preconceived,
for peace and harmony.
