Sea of Humanity
She starts her day
With a dose of news
Angry and frustrated
She logs into Facebook
Vents and inevitably picks a fight
With someone from the opposition...
Who also starts his day
With a dose of news
Angry and frustrated
He also logs into Facebook
To vent and inevitably picks a fight
With someone from the opposition
They meet in the comments section
Of some inflammatory post...
And the war wages on
Each believing the other
To be the devil incarnate
In reality
Each is just a person
Paddling as best they can
With broken oars
History gave them
Firmly grasped within their hands
Trying desperately to make their way...
In this sea of humanity
I pray
Compassion be reborn within us
Loosen our grips on old broken oars
Allow us to reach for new and better ones
So the children of mothers
Young and old can rest on the seashore and
Not be lost at sea
With a dose of news
Angry and frustrated
She logs into Facebook
Vents and inevitably picks a fight
With someone from the opposition...
Who also starts his day
With a dose of news
Angry and frustrated
He also logs into Facebook
To vent and inevitably picks a fight
With someone from the opposition
They meet in the comments section
Of some inflammatory post...
And the war wages on
Each believing the other
To be the devil incarnate
In reality
Each is just a person
Paddling as best they can
With broken oars
History gave them
Firmly grasped within their hands
Trying desperately to make their way...
In this sea of humanity
I pray
Compassion be reborn within us
Loosen our grips on old broken oars
Allow us to reach for new and better ones
So the children of mothers
Young and old can rest on the seashore and
Not be lost at sea
