I had a dream!
Where all man will dream no more!
And Man will live such peaceful lives!
Where Man can accept whoever whenever!
I had a dream!
And that's all it will be,
Just a dream!

What is man that he kills his own brother?
Loves one another's wives, children and mistresses.
What is man that he prides on his beliefs?
Going to extremes refuting tolerance and understanding
Relying on assumptions and embracing ignorance!

What is man that he adorns wealth?
Scorns the poor and exploits the weak.
That at the presence of suffering he doesn't weep!
But rests on it as it satisfies his needs!

What is man that he holds the reins of life?
Killing in the name of mercy
Murdering to cover the guilt of promiscuity!
And the shame of having a retard baby!

What is man that he proclaims his own superiority?
Justifying the erradication of a race
In the name of cleansing!
Defaming one's beliefs for freedom of expression
And holding the world at ransom for unequal treatment!

What is man that he is his own fear?

It's a pity that man breaks his word!
Many men have promised a better world!
Yet what we see is a degeneration of the species!
Children are less filial, parents are less caring.
Families are breaking
And what are the governments debating?

The brains are there!
Knowledge is everywhere!
Yet who is the one who misuses it?
Misinteprets it?
Abuses it?
Exploits it?

In our little havens in our own corners of habitation
Rarely do we take a peak at the happenings out there
Cowering in our oh so comfortable lives
Hoping and wishing nothing creeps in
Letting the forces of life dictate

Therefore what is man?

A creature? an animal? a being?
A clump of billions of electrons, protons
Atoms and molecules subjected to the universal forces?

Sometimes we look at man wondering,
What is goin on in his mind?
And yet we say nothing...

But at the end of the day,
AS long as its not me
LIfe never felt better...
HOw we wish so...
So say we all...

Wells it was out of the blue. I guess of all the things happening ard the world right now what kind of a voice do we really need now? Peace? Unity? Many tried, many died trying, yet many more will still fight on. Sadly the many are a few and soon the few nothing more than a vapour on an ever shrinking puddle.

Have dreamers and fighters become obselete? That now conformers and followers populate the world? Ones who blindly follow without any hold on their lives. They go far, they work real hard. But is it a smile they will attain? Wells we shall see...

We shall see in the year 2020 that in 14 yrs time will we be smiling at one another or wish we had never killed each other...

man in a mad world...but how much of truth do this words hold when we ourselves are deceived by our own ideas of this mad world....

gary jules-mad world
