Wouldn't It Be Great Poem by Mark Heathcote

Wouldn't it be great if we could all heal each other?
Instead of all this brutality & corruption, wouldn't it be beautiful?
If we could all just love one another and learn to compromise
Instead of all this internalizing hatred again, and again.
Wouldn't it be beautiful if all God's men could go on living?
Without, without seeing red, without a vengeful thought, word or feeling in their head.
Wouldn't it be beautiful if all God's men could go on living?
Best of friends—but sadly they can't coz there's just too much evil
Envy makes them act out of spite
Makes them act like fools, makes them all or most act cruelly.
Wouldn't it be great if we could all heal each other?
Wouldn't it be great if we could all behave as sisters & loving brothers?
Instead of all this brutality & corruption, wouldn't it be beautiful?
If we could all just love one another and learn to compromise
Instead of all this internalizing hatred again, and again.
Oh, brother tells me sister tell me, do you love me?
