In this world where some people
have turned their backs on beauty,
on the right to human dignity,
on the very breath of life itself,
there are men and women of peace and vision
who exhort us to hear the music of the spheres,
to feel true heavenly light
in the renewal of Earth's daily light,
to sense divinity in the mysterious darkness
upon us every night,
the moon above a guiding light.

The people who stand deaf and blind
to the destruction they rain,
unaware it shall backfire
on their own kind--
to them a message:

smell the flowers
walk the shores
undress beautiful women
fill your hearts with humbling sights
read the ancient poets
take a deep breath for the gift of life
STOP THE KILLINGS
