If you inflate The balloon of hate, And then make it burst. Don't feign surprise When your family dies As hatred does its worst. Don't dare to say There was no way That you never knew, What their plan For the "lesser" man Would end up costing you. Don't close your eyes, See through the lies And open up your mind, Don't be a pawn With all dignity shorn, Understand we are all of a kind. Tom Higgins 27/05/2014

The Balloon of Hate.
If you inflate The balloon of hate, And then make it burst. Don't feign surprise When your family dies As hatred does its worst. Don't dare to say There was no way That you never knew, What their plan For the "lesser" man Would end up costing you. Don't close your eyes, See through the lies And open up your mind, Don't be a pawn With all dignity shorn, Understand we are all of a kind. Tom Higgins 27/05/2014
