One Love One Heart Poem by RIC BASTASA

one love
one heart
let's get together
and it would be alright
let get together and
feel alright, i am singing this song
of bob marley
as i remember how shattered we are

selfish sisters and brutal brothers
and deceiving dads and
mummified mommies

how i wish to sigh this song
again and again

one love one heart one soul
one song, ...father of creation...

one love one heart let's get together
and feel all right


what an imagination
detached from the reality of the selfishness
of men and the deceiving schemes of women...


somehow, the world has survived for years
with love that still reigns in the hearts of men
fires by the spirit of history
still marching and marching
with lessons learned
after so much misery....
