I have a Dream

I have a dream, that someday
We’ll find within our DNA
That little speck of avarice greed
And mute it to the smallest need.

Cut away the easy lean
Extract enough grizzly mean
To sooth the vapors of our drive
Just enough to keep us alive

It’s not impossible you know
It’s my belief it could be so.
And this is how I lean today
Since we can’t find another way.

Just a small circumcision
For our futures bright vision
Would give to us a running start
For a loving healthy human heart

Since our chapel can’t find an end
Why not a scalpel to amend?

This one kind of scared me at first!   But then, I'm a little jumpy these days. I like this much, it gets into a spiritual philosophy that think about often. Sort of alchemical surgery.   Thanks for the ponder this morning, SIGH...

Oh, my friend ... for some that would be major surgery~
What time is the operating room available ?
I know a few candidates ... but, can we waive their rights to 'agree' to the procedure ?????

Loving the way you think !
Ever been nominated as Surgeon General before ???
Ya' have now ! !  
Love ya'

Marge,
My love, like circumcision it is done in childhood. And no thanks I am more sturgeon
than surgeon. Kisses and hugs for the vote.

Gosh, I love how you get right to the heart of things!   Well said Sir Sy! Amen! But, if only it could be done!
This one's a keeper~
