In 1976, there was a shocking film of hope
titled "Voyage of the Damned"
it was a beautiful film of survival
in the face of hostility in this cruel world
In 2022, I felt like those in the ship
this time in the verge of freedom
but with severe censorship from those
pretending to be sane intellectuals
Are people nowadays all like that
afraid to face the whole truth
or just a silly bunch of morons
fearing of what truth may lead us to
Can't you see what's happening around us
Are you blind or immune to react to such things
I often missed the sensitivity of our olds
who responded eagerly to the needs of others
Without the Ten Booms and Schindler
lives of many Jews were not spared
in the regime of the insane dictator
that once governed Aryan Germany
Numerous instances in history
depicted of such similar abuses
to people of color and creed
and political affiliations of all sorts
Now what are we doing
as global citizens of this free world
is Putin's action indispensable to what
he wants from Ukraine and its citizens
Has this generation of men act
as callous as the thick bark of a tree
alienated that neither grief nor suffering
can be sensed by empathy and pains
Human are much worse than the love
shown by a canine dog to its master
or the loyalty of a kitty to its mistress
what has gone wrong in our system
Man has forgotten the love of God
exhibited by the son who died for us
because of one's greediness and self-love
we destroy relationships and the wide world
Watch out or lest this message be too late
Instead of sharing the blessings to others
we are ruining the world by our hypocrisy
Be involved and end the cycle of the damned!
