Tear Down The Walls

Tear Down the Walls That was a powerful statement Made by a serious President. These words changed the continents And the whole world. Those words made a lot of sense To the young and the old. That was back then, Why now, more walls are being erected? I guess, we, humans, Never learned from our shortsighted Experience due to selfishness, Greed, hypocrisy, and weakness. There is always a humane way To encircle the heavens with your concrete walls And your venomously man-made bay. No matter how tall Is your fence, you cannot stop the air From traveling and twirling in the atmosphere. You cannot stop the waves from caressing the shore. You cannot stop the volcanoes from burning the floor. All walls will come down one day. All chiefs will return penniless to the alley Of death, where vitam aeternam is a laughing matter; When Mom speaks, you better listen to Mother. Brother against brother, sister against sister, Nation against nation, the universe belongs to my brother, To my sister and to all of us; it does not matter Where you were born; The sound of the horn Will disintegrate your soul when the time comes. Tear down the walls and plant colorful mums. P.S. Happy 20th.
