Spiritual and Inspirational poetry that touch the heart and soul, and provoke the mind.
I,
as a citizen of the world,
who wishes to live in peace and harmony,
who believes in freedom of expression and civil-religious liberty,
who champions human rights and respects the right of all to chose their own
path according to their conscience,
who lauds, supports and encourages all that’s good, worthy, noble, prudent,
harmonious, right, decent, beneficial, restorative, holistic, kind,
considerate, fair, uplifting and inspiring,
hereby condemn and disown crimes against humanity,
and call on all to renounce the likes of:
terrorism,
persecution,
torture,
oppression,
tyranny,
cronyism,
deception,
secrecy,
warring,
violence in general,
destructiveness,
recklessness,
corruption,
hatred,
racism,
bigotry,
indifference,
human trafficking,
the degrading of women,
the belittling of men,
the abusing of children,
the mistreatment of the elderly,
the harming of our planet,
cruelty to, and exploitation of, animals,
and therefore call on all to improve and ease the lot of others,
foster greater understanding and communication,
be instrumental in effecting reconciliation,
teach, preach and practice, love, truth and virtue,
be more open-minded, tolerant and flexible,
demand accountability, transparency and equality,
protect the vulnerable, show fairness to minorities,
oppose what’s wrong and defend what’s right,
act lawfully, peacefully, compassionately and thoughtfully,
be positive, reliable and upstanding role models,
be productive, charitable, impartial and humble,
be kind to strangers and beggars,
treat all life as precious and sacrosanct,
respect the rights of others,
act responsibly as caretakers of Earth,
and show foresight.
