The ubiquitous lust for power Constant strife and discord War, discontent, terror and arson The constant rhetoric and finger pointing Arms race and nuclear buildup Bloodshed and broken rubble Shuffle like images in a kaleidoscope The fleeting dove has lost its way In this illusory maze Deluded in anger , lust and envy Its vision is blurred Seeking the rainbow -utopian and ephemeral The naive man rushes outward Hidden in his own ***** Is the lasting peace he seeks ©copyright skm
