Condition

Humanity,
falling apart,
with vanity,
consuming hearts.
Brutality,
flings hateful darts,
Stupidity,
erasing smarts.

Doubtful eyes,
walking around.
Hurtful cries,
vibrating sounds.
False disguise,
seem so profound.
Painful lies,
swiftly surround.

Great clarity,
causes restart,
community,
makes love an art,
brings unity,
hatred departs,
affinity,
flies off the charts.

Gained control,
pledges and oaths,
mend all holes,
so faith can grow.
Every role,
impacts the flow,
clears the soul,
so peace can glow.

– Grace Y. Estevez – Reddy
