Peace
Everywhere you look there’s conflict.
For example: school,
drawing artistic designs on the
dirty, green walls
of the boys’ bathroom never helps
peace prosper
because then our school goes into a
hectic search
for the guilty people.
When found, they pay their dues by
getting suspended, after reading an
apology letter.
The world is the same thing,
there are always problems.
We just haven’t found out who that artistic designer is,
yet.
And if we did, we would have them write an apology letter
too.
Like the United States apologizing to Hawaii,
For designing the worst-case scenario for
the Queen.
The world is like a clock. We can see it clearly from the
outside,
but in the inside it is very
complicated,
with all of the little dials
working,
as the world leaders do, behind the
scenes,
working out our problems which are
still unsolved.
So, will we ever have peace?
