And Here It Is, The Spirit Of Mankind, Still Hoping, And Surging. Poem by RIC BASTASA

we do not think
about an ending, or it
it is going to be one,
we always desire
the happy ending,

but mind you, i have
read a lot about the lives
of real people,
about the history of
this world,
the journey of nations,

there is always this
the suspense of what happens next,
i am not talking of
movies,
i am talking about what really happened,
be aware, do not be disappointed,
just be real, and honest and
practical,

sad endings happened,
uncertainties are in place,
the horrors of histories are
there,
the blunders of wicked men,
and the cruelty of war gods,

and here it is,
the spirit of mankind,
still hoping,
and surging.
