if i could change anything in this world
politics and religion would be removed
from the minds of men
wars would cease
love would be the goal and the prize
there would be no welfare
no hand outs
or free rides
but Charity
who prevails every time
faith that everything would be ok
if i gave it all away
hope for a future
to the ones that recieved
blessings
strangers sharing food
out of the love of their hearts
not dank old buildings
waiting lines
and wenchy receptionists
on the end of the
phone line
handing the poor
a germy pen
through a hole in her
bulletproof heart
as she instructs you to
fill out the government form
you slip up once
you'll go to jail
as you sign the straight
line that's
leaving you blind
love is not a form
or a required signature
its a free gift for the needy
love your neighbor as yourself
He said
have you given yourself
a slice of bread?
give half to your neighbor
with a smile instead
show them your compassion
through the portholes to your soul
make it a human interaction
as they make themselves full
you can see the fellowship
trust
a brotherhood of man
now you're making your way up
as you offer your hand
to help your fellow sister
and her babies too
stop turning a blind eye
to the ones that need you
in an ideal world
we would not be taxed
we would be blessed to share
our shelter
our food
our lives
our best
if i could change the way
people thought
about our social situation
I would hope to spread love
throughout the nation
teach the boys to fish
so they could become fisher-Men
and the girls to be Moms
and kindhearted friends
it would take a superpower
but I think its possible
one strong willed person
to spread the seeds of love
to become a field of love
swaying in the winds of change
together
happy
free
