Is there anything we can do?

Is there anything we can do?

Is there anything 
    We can do 
Brothers and 
   Sisters 
To make this world
    This earth 
  The earth 
Less violent 
     Less angry 
Less eXplosive
       Less war 
 Less hate 
      Less bitterness 
  Less rage 
      My mother used 
To say 
Turn the other cheek
      Until I got hit 
  In
The cheek
   My brother used to say
 F I G H T 
     Until I got suspended 
  So I ask you 
Brother 
    Who art in grace 
          Father who art in heaven 
     Sister 
   Who art on this  beautiful earth 
           I, a human 
  A soul upon this land 
      Looking up towards the blue 
   The sky 
         The clouds 
     Holding the myth of humanity 
           We, the suffering 
      Look unto the Lord 
   God forgive us
           In the name of our father 
 Is there anything 
    We can do 
We can do
   We can do
               Do we care 
 Yes 
Do we love 
Yes 
      Do we dare to change 
           Yes we dare to change 
   Are we weak 
        No 
We are not weak 
    Are we sitting on our hands 
         No we are not sitting on our hands 
  Lord we are not sitting on our hands 
     We are the people 
         Praying to God 
   Praying to the universe 
         Grief in the pit of stomach 
 The soul
      The firebelly
            The life 
    The sun blows into 
       The heart warmth 
   Love, 
       Energy 
Compassion 
The wind blows 
    The seeds of truth 
 Is there anything you can do 
       Anything you can do 
Brother 
To make this world a 
   Less violent place?

The dreadlocks

The heart...

If long nights bleed into the sun, shall it weep the red day born. For blood moons cast shadows and shade...
