Everybody’s Shouting, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB/META and @Brianrrs37 on Twitter/X)

Everybody’s shouting, “I got it right!”
Everybody’s fighting, day and night.
Everybody’s dying, running out of time

Guilt assigned, all others maligned
Fewer fellow humans, willing to be kind
Weapons drawn makes doomsday spawn

Everybody’s shouting, “I got it right”
All the gods are fighting, day and night
Everybody’s dying, running out of time

Myopic and short sighted, focused one’s tribe
If your God cant threaten them, maybe use a bribe
Divisions getting wider, based on arrogant pride

Everybody’s shouting, “I got it right”
Everybody’s fearful, reason is out of sight
Everybody’s dying, running out of time

We are all the same species on the same ride
First class, coach, or sitting way in back
Our species won’t survive, if we focus on attack

Everybody’s capable, of seeing we’re all the same
Speaking different languages, wearing different cloths
Eating different food, hoping good is where it goes
