A Farcical Discord

Our ancestors bequeathed us right to life.

Yet we were confused, for they have also
bequeathed us many ways of life; life is hard now,
we never learned how to unite as anger recede.

From slavery, torture, to unlawful murder.

These were never peculiar nor bizarre; Where is
the transparency, tolerance and accountability?
If the outcome is always been a cacophony.

Freedom, a free flow of everything: piercing words,

disgruntled grumblings and half baked ramblings;
Used as a shield or an excuse to destroy others.
It should never be like this, it should never be!

Through chosen words, we can evoke emotion

to be bear by others across the deep azure sea;
Through spoken words, we can outreach and
set any sound ideas or virtues into motion;

Each one is endowed with reason and conscience,

May these gifts develop freedom with just peace,
and with universal understanding and dignity regardless
of any distinction, we must never let anyone drown!
