IT'S WELL KNOWN THAT

                                                              

OFFSHOOTS OF THE SURVIVAL

 INSTINCT CAN BE TOXIC

Our survival sense...Oh!

It's the strongest we know;

Yet, tribalism

Spoils second place...

The latter spawns

Discord, destruction and war;

Such a curse

On the whole human race!

Taking stock of our foibles,

Our faults and our flaws,

Permits one to slowly

Save face...

Does history not teach us,

Through years of despair,

That PEACE yields the

Ultimate grace??
