We bandage our souls and we hold onto hope
Prevail in our poetry, find ways to cope
Search for the places where sanity dwells
And march in our many with stories to tell.
The rise of the Right full of wrongness and hate
The lies in disguise and the twisting of fate
In troubled enfoldings of day after day
We look for the light that can show us the way.
We see it in kindness and know we can heal
Believe in our brothers and sisters and feel
The warmth of humanity, wounded by fears
Is strengthened by love and is cleansed by our tears.
We know in our hearts that the demons are strong
That wars are unjust and the journey is long
That blame is too esay and justice too slow
So we sew seeds of love in the hope that they grow.
We know that they can and we know that they will
We know that we cant stop believing until
We win and our winning brings peace to all lands
So we keep writing poems till the world understands.
