Headed In The Same Direction Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Despite of their lack of light.
And vision clouded,
By an absence of insight...
Many have begun on the right road,
To see...
A disharmony fading from them to leave,
Whatever it had been to dislike...
About one another.
To make them hate and fight.
Their paths out of darkness,
Will begin to reveal them all to be...
Headed in the same direction.

Headed in the same direction.
Away from conflict and their fears.
Headed in the same direction.
Wanting to be freed from agony and pain.
Headed in the same direction.
Wishing to let go of burdens and woes.
Headed in the same direction.
No matter what their color shows,
That day will come they all will know...
What they've been taught to dislike,
To keep feeding upon this kind of appetite.
And despite of their lack of light and insight,
Paths they have taken away from the darkness...
Will reveal them all to be,
Headed in the same direction.
Effectively!
