MIND POLLUTION

What is the solution
To mind pollution?
Will it take a revolution
To reform this evolution?

Our youth are being bombarded
With music, pornography and drugs,
Their souls are not highly regarded
By the pollutants of the mind.

So much art
Is not enlightened,
But designed to dehumanize
And destroy the spirit.

Let us unite
Ecologists of the mind,
To clean up the world
And the minds of all mankind.

Song of the Soul

I sing a love song
to the world
to the world that suffers
prejudice, hate and war.

I sing a love song
to the world,
to the world that suffers
AIDS, drug and alcohol addiction.

I sing a love song
to the world,
to the world that suffers
domestic violence, child and sexual abuse.

I sing a love song
to the world,
to the world that suffers
pornography, pollution, and propaganda.

I sing a love song
to the world
Oh, come, sing a love song
with me.

Inner Peace

So much has been written
About peace in the world,
Peace on earth, peace be with you,
Shalom.

Peace is more
Than the absence of war,
More than tolerance
More than acceptance.

There can never be peace
Between individuals or nations,
Until we are at peace with ourselves
That inner peace that passes understanding.
