Capitalism?
The lesser of a thousand
Evils at this time
The toiling masses here in this
US are stepped upon and cheated
By the rich not quit so ghastly
As in other realms of universe
On earth the slowly dwindling moving
Faster to the order out of chaos
That may splatter fall and crush the lives
And hopes of billions to their grave
With bleating hearts though all are
Godly holy plus a bit of self
Contaminate which may be
Quickly freely dropped at any time
Or so i'm told by seated teaching
Buddha man now dead
Now dead now dead but
Relatively speaking truth
He never was cuz we are he and she
But just don't know it yet
So all in all with all
The love misuse and thieving lying
****** **** torture hatred
Anger depression prejudice drugs
Denial fear kidnapping of kids
Illness road rage and suicide
That define our red and white and blue daze
There also gleams a glimmer
Of compassion in the source of
Every being self-imputed
Which will blossom at some moment
I am very truly certain
But when?
society compassion u.s. buddha
