It's time to connect back


Thus spake the wise word -
excess of anything
is always bad,
but few can foresee
what for most,
only time has to tell.

Those who rule those who toil,
those who strike those who bear,
those who break those who join,
if only their hearts would have 
felt their pain,
and their bodies would have 
seen their sweat,
and their veins would have 
sipped their sap,
they would have
listened more and spoken less,
given more and taken less,
embraced more and banished less,
for those that are one,
divide not for selfish gain,
for those that love
dwell not on the path of hate,
for those that are in touch
direct not like a race,
but cares truly like a friend,
and stands by the side,
helps when it helps,
holds a torch otherwise.

Oh dear!
do you hear?
it's time to connect back!
