Show me the country ...
Show me the country
Where they glorify the torture.
Where people are hungry
And the well- known murderer,
Can walk freely and be free.
Show me the country
Where everyone is deceived
And the people are cleaved,
The backward there means forward,
Where to say the truth is awkward.
Don’t rotate the globe
With a hope to find this country.
You won't find it on the planet Earth.
Even your native berth is cursed.
Show me the country
Where the rulers rob the people
And flout the law.
Where is that thaw?
It’s impossible to live like that.
Give me a gun to kill that rat
That spoils the barrel of honey.
I think where to get money
To pay for medicine and food
For my health to be good.
You won’t find that country on the map.
Except for the one which is killing.
That one is impossible for the living.

When humanity was conceived it was blessed with intelligence and awareness but cursed with aggression and ignorance. The age-old
conflict within ourselves goes on - and the lands that support
humanity struggle to survive let alone prosper. We live in hope yet
die in despair. And so it goes on while those blessed look towards
those cursed and do the best they can to make a difference.
