A very wise man said an eye for an eye
leaves the whole world blind.
  Would that be a bad thing all together? I ask.

A world without sight would close our differences.
and draw commonality. A universal tribality. The blind would be
required to lead the blind.

Imagine all of us reaching out to hold hands in a common cause.
All for one and one for all. Hold onto your brother so he does not fall.

Judge me not by the skin I am in.
Touch my face and feel my spirit.

Hear my voice with your heart not
you fear.

Lets try this...

An eye for an eye, for an eye, for a  year.

Peace.
I would not take this to its logical conclusion.
