The Cure

One thing lies behind

Lies and deceit

Thirst for power

Lust for wealth

Conflicts and war

Misery and strife

Illusions of grandeur

Contempt

Aggression

Bigotry:


Fear

Fear lies behind all our baser instincts -

Fear of truth

Of helplessness

Poverty

Oppression

Victimization

Belittlement

Persecution

Accountability

Justice


The therapy for the evils

Of this mortal life

Is to overcome our fear

And embrace acceptance

Eschew violence 

Promote peace

Cast out hate

And give

Love
