The Oil of Fire

Life is made in many different forms,

These different forms come from different makers.

You eat the food from the ground,

You drink the water from the seas,

You smell the scent of the flowers,

And you breathe the air of the earth.

The Presidents made the constitution,

The gods made the earth,

The chicken laid the egg,

And seed made the tree.

Everything has a source.

It’s the heart of the body,

Without it we would be dead

It’s the Sun of the Universe,

Without it we would be dead.

It’s the racism of our society,

Without it we would be alive.

It has brought nothing

Except hatred and war,

It is something undesirable,

Nothing we adore.

The main source of it,

Died many years ago,

Not possible to fix,

This situation left us in woe.

We can always attempt to make a change,

Getting a lot of people to agree, is very hard to arrange.

Most likely it is impossible to complete this task,

Everyone is two afraid to help, they will wear the fearful mask.
