Be Peacable Poem by Mona Willis

Yelling, Shouting
Chants Of Pain
Hurting, Fighting
Driven insane
Why can’t we be peaceable?
Why can’t we be loving?
To me it’s not possible
That we could ever be in lulling
Why must fight tell me
Why must we cry tell me
We must slowly kill ourselves
Over stupid things
They only hurt themselves
And there self-dignity they do fling
If we could all just see
How stupid we really can be
Make a change, make it work
Rearrange, give it all your worth
If you believe that will be a time
When the sun will always shine
Then you know what we all need to do
Yes me and even you
Be calm, be loving
Yes all this to yourself your owing
This sure enough is reachable
Please, Be Peaceable
