No Peace Reached



There will be no peace reached.
Or a mending of divisions.
In a place where the majority of the people,
Believe themselves to be entitled,
To delude and fiction...
They own what they steal
With a doing to separate truth and reality,
Away from their unconscious minds.
Celebrating fraud, deception and crimes.
Openly committed.
And with the freedom to pick,
Who better represents their way of life.
Done whether right or wrong day and night.
To fight, protect and defend an image.
White to idolize and worship.
While destroying themselves to prove,
They can ruin their lives and others too.
Based upon a fiction of truth to delude it.
With minds completely,
Absent of common sense.
Yet sold on what they've been told.
And blind not to see,
The reality of their own destruction!

That's some sick stuff to digest.
And to know peace can not be reached.
In a land named to claim to be united.
Great and free from acts of discrimination.
To appear from the outside,
Hypocrisy resides.
Yet...
The citizens deny,
A throwing of sticks and rocks at each other.
As if to prefer,
A life to live to pay homage...
To their barbarian ancestors.
Long to have gone but in times like these,
So proud they are to show and be...
Missing to dwell in darkened caves.
Reminiscing wars and started conflicts,
Wished and for them get more!
Everywhere forever to stay in the past to live.
