Disarm from your passivity and Arm with passion in action! (The International Day of Peace-September 21st)

Dear fellow citizens, respected politicians, dignified statesmen, all people of the earth,

I plead with YOU:

Cast off your shadow of vanity

tear apart those imbecile lies

cut off the chains of arrogant misery

forget about your selfish self/plot!



Let gentle winds and pure waters

cover you with new sensations

Let children's laughter and human's touch

permeate within your twisted vapors.



Oil spilled and blackened the water

Diamonds glittered and caused massive slaughter

Gold, Silver, Jade and Gems,

oh, Nature's wonders revealing

the ugly face of humanity

in total disgrace!



And power balance, games unfold

nuclear warheads and missiles,

they are all part of the plot

cruel dictators, ambitious politicians

merciless and greedy multinational corporations...



will anyone "surrender" their greedy wishes?

And favor the excluded, the poor, the needy?

will anyone stand up and speak out the truth?

will Any powerful person dare make a move?

and once, once and for all end this theatre brutal, absurd?



will anyone raise the banner of peace?

without just being all self-righteous, full of pretense!?



it's not too late for a total make-over

our world still has a chance to survive

our destruction total

Nature is weeping for the oppressed

their bodies, their bruises, their hunger and grieves

they'll flood the earth, Nature will revenge!



the tides are changing...


So, dismantle the weapons, forget ancient ways

let 21st century be remembered as the age of the The Change

a grand and magnificent, an all-encompassing sublime phase

of human's highest moral standing and unselfish acts/deeds


change your weapons of destruction

to such that yield mass Construction (development)

create a Force of children-

empowered by knowledge and wisdom!



take oil, take diamonds,

take all that you like

turn it in Precious investments

in real human lives



Recycle your weapons

Recycle your ways

Recycle your governance

Lead your people with humility and grace!


No, don't wait for the government or for someone else


YOU are the change!


the citizen, the fighter, the voice of the oppressed,

Raise the banner and with peaceful voices, actions and faith

Speak Justice, Speak PEACE! in this torn land


in this confused and twisted world

there is a truth that lies in you:


Raise the white flag! Let PEACE be the fruit!



DISARM from your passivity, your neglect, your diconcern

and ARM with the truth, passion (in action), and a heart of love full!

p.s. in some tribes in Nigeria the raising of a white flag signifies PEACE

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PEACE...

I WISH FOR A DAY TO COME, WHEN WORDS LIKE WAR, VICTIMS, WEAPONS, PAIN...

WILL BE ONLY PART OF HISTORY, NOT AN EVERYDAY REALITY!
