Think

Before
you fly
in
too
Think…
the wide abyss
is an illusion
it is not
really
there
Think…
Ignore the smoke
look into the mirror
Do their mothers tears
weigh less than your mothers?
Do their fathers not gnash their teeth
In loss of only sons?
Do their babies weep less
when their Mothers are raped?
Do the orphans have roadmaps
to humanity to fill their empty bellies?
Think…
How
is this man
different from you
What
does he want
that you do not
crave for yourself
you taught the world to sing
what language did you use?
As ye sow.
Can you
see the harvest
in the mirror?
