Somewhere a child is crying Cry, child, cry Cry, child the world cannot last much longer unless we change Cry, child For the children in third world countries who are eaten alive by vultures (all the people there are too busy making Nike shoes and Adidas jackets and Rip Zone coats to help) Cry, child for our shameful abuse of Mother Nature Cry, child for the people who are persecuted for speaking our against their corrupt government Cry, child for the people who will be abused today Cry, child for the people who will go hungry today And, child... cry for the people who will die today ...peace as a primary goal, is dangerous because it implies that you will sacrifice any principle for the sake of it....

I thought your poem was written well and with a lot of emotion. I feel that way sometimes, too. Other times, though, I think that despairing over what's wrong with the world only adds to the problem. I feel that it is important to help those who need help, but also to put as much love and hope out there as possible, because I think that's what will ultimately change the world. Those are just my thoughts, though, and I'm not sharing them to criticize yours. You are entitled to feel whatever way you feel about things. Take care and keep writing! =) |

This poem isn't really written to make you think I'm sitting here crying, but not doing anything. I am in a group of wonderful people who are trying to make a difference. I wrote this poem to make people aware of what is happening out there. Thanks for commenting though! See ya! ...peace as a primary goal, is dangerous because it implies that you will sacrifice any principle for the sake of it.... Robert Kaplan |

...And the masses were silent... Come on people! Say something! I didn't post this for nothing (or I hope not!). Sorry, bad day. Oh well. I'll live. ...peace as a primary goal, is dangerous because it implies that you will sacrifice any principle for the sake of it.... Robert Kaplan |

hello! I'm ILN, but with a new name, the last one was an idea of a friend of mine, now that I've got a better idea of my own, I'll use it instead. sexyILN ....peace as a primary objective is dangerous because it implies that we would sacrifice anything for the sake of it.... |
