I cry for them all.
The Black Lives That Matter.
The Unborn made a commodity.
The magnificent creatures killed to satisfy ego.
The abandoned,
The hungry,
The mistreated and abused,
The exploited bounty of a beautiful world.
I long for change.
But you cannot beat change into humanity.
I will not add my voice to the din and chaos
of angry righteousness.
There is too much of that.
It is said that only love can conquer hate.
So I will raise my voice in a Song of Love and Compassion
For all of them.
