I was talking to a friend
about the way the world
is going
and we thought back
in time
to the sixties
not just in america
but all over the world
death war peace protest
words common in many tongues
civil liberties in check
fingers pointing
black and white issues
countries divided
by ageracereligiongender
issues still alive today
names change
and faces too
but victory is still a dream
away

sad but true –and a great last 2 lines
Thank you.
Well said. But hope seems more and more like a silly dream. After so many years, things are worse than ever for so many.
I think it was always this way but with technology and the web we now find out just how bad things are very easily.
Oh yea, I’m 69 and not seen much change…
We as a society never learn.
Has always been and will probably always be. That is the beauty of humanity; the imperfections that bring progress.
Beautiful Piece.
Thank you, Faraz.
My pleasure.
