See beyond the Well and Contribute to System Change! – By Oscar E V Fernando
Majority-A and Minority B-Are they equal before Law-some say this and others that
This Void not met? -more blood will be shed!
This that or the other we say-Shadow of Majority falls on a Minority
Solution? Both sides to approach in grace and Charity.
Not possible says some-look at Buddha Gandhi Christ Mandela and the likes
Let go Hatred-Love-Forgive-Turn other cheek-are Traits to abide
Possible it is-difficult if history alone you abide
History at times opinionated and opinion a view held as probable-beside.
See the score behind-in Thirties -State Council a Happy Majority/Minority Mix
Closer to Independence they all struggled to fix
Independence, won-but then the Struggle to win-Left or Right of Boss began
Started then and still goes on now-in a battle of disgrace and shame
In struggle for Power-Land-Politics Finance sort equally
Fighting-even Fisticuff on Human Rights Fora in Vehemence and in Folly
No more a battle of Elara and Dutugamunu fame
Now a battle in Cyber Space-ignitimg ethnic flame
In Council State a feeble cry for Arasacathcu staged
An embryo in form for a bigger battle to wage
Wage they did as Peace Pacts passed Parliament-were abrogated in shame
By those so blind inside the well who did not see the recurring flame
Land too small to share-says Majority but Belgium smaller is sharing
As both head and heart are used in ways over-bearing
Remember Greats have said-Love thy neighbor as thyself
Try with head over heart so to enjoy this life span in pelf
.
Jump out from well and see the Volcano they are sitting on
For hatred will not cease with heated-eruption will follow spot on
Then too late to pull out from further Bankruptcy
And only in Hell to celebrate the Burning Victory
