This corrupted Tower of Babel…
Losing our indigenous values…
Selling souls for specks of black gravel…
This never ending battle between the so called righteous…
And the spiteless…
The poor rich parables that paint…
These scales of societies…
Balance the weight…
Geomancy…

Divinate from past ways…
But time flows one way…
So continual change…
But who or what should I believe…
The words of this…
Soaked in red earthen…
Burned surface…
Left behind by past lives…
Whose demise I had a part in my life…

Wiped away from the pages of history…
Make me wish I didn’t read…
Their miseries…
But no images…
Just words…
Misunderstood…
Happy that I don’t understand…
As I tip the scales towards their plan…
To ignore the pains…
As we scar this landscape…

Another old piece.

Intro:
The basis of a peace treaty…is agreement…But why to do we go to war in the first place? Can’t we respect each other enough to understand that we are all humans; sharing this earth? And what’s worse, we often break treaties for our own selfish gains…I just don’t believe that how we are supposed to be in this world…

I wonder why we can’t have peace…?
I wonder why the beast seems to dominate our state of affairs…Beset with problems which nobody cares for…with arguments over resources…The source of which is rooted in between those on opposite sides of the imaginary lines…Blinded themselves to the times…Can’t seem to realize we all share this land…Or they choose to ignore…Go to war…There is a victor…And victims…A never ending system of self-defeat…So the “peace” treaty follows…However…

Too many times we don’t abide by the bylaws of the paper we sign…Filled with lies…Before the ink even dried, treaties were scorned then torn…No matter what form…No matter what style…All in good faith? No…All we do is make mockeries of different peoples…Claiming they’re feeble and should be controlled…Force them to enter our fold through loopholes and blatant hate…Now we own them…

The violations of the universal rights…Freedom and the right to life keeps getting denied…Pieces of paper mean nothing today…We raising our kids in all the wrong ways…Making them think they better than others..Our future is in the gutter…No hope for peace…It’s all I see now…
END

This corrupted Tower of Babel…
Losing our indigenous values…
Selling our souls for specks of black gravel…
This never ending battle between the so called riteous…
And the spiteless…
