A Prayer for the Human Condition
God of grace and light
Are we born with hate
or do we pick it up
somewhere along the way
and like a stone that we kick
down the road can we just throw it away
can we discard our hate?
The absence of hate
is the salvation
of humanity
The end of war
The end of poverty
poverty
The absence of love
is the destruction of reality
No end to war
No end to poverty, poverty
