A society that loses or misplaces Compassion and Concern Turns a corner leading nowhere
Time to recall those who supported,
Replaced our bravest called to War,
Others placed on fields to secure
A piece of land protestors found.
These are not "New Times"
They are History Repeating Itself
Times we thought we'd passed
Securing equality and safety
When you do
your evening walk
Children in tow,
Dogs on a leash,
Saying an occasional " Hi"
To neighbors old and new. . .
See the destruction
You viewed on your "screen"
Realizing War begins over
Labeling, Classifying and Pigeonholing.
Every neighborhood, every continent,
Is a step away from repeating History.
Our Globe is finite.
Space will allow a selected few.
Thought of as "Pioneers'
Who Will Be "The Chosen Ones"
We choose who to follow,
We select who to raise above
Our hands hold our future
