When the World is a Stranger
Thursday 8 June 2017, by
#socialtagsWhen the world is a stranger,
Go humanise it;
When the world is a dictator,
Go democratise it.
When the world will not look
Into the kindness in your eyes,
Sing a song of togetherness
That callousness defies.
When justice becomes an empty word,
Be as just as you can;
When an epidemic of hate strikes,
Be your own medicine.
When gods defect to the money-bags
Take them on as well;
When creeds deface creation,
Be boldly spiritual.
