Simply fixing my world

Simply fixing my world

So much wrong

with my world...

war

because of people

We could try with no guns...

I wouldn't care if megalomaniacs 

and survivalists had to chase 

people with sticks.

poverty

because of people

We could try sharing more...

I wouldn't care if no one had any gold taps.

hunger

because of people

We could try sharing more...

I wouldn't care if I had to do without

my second helping.

greed

because of people

We could try living with what we have...

hard as that may be.

theft

because of people

We could try fixing the other problems...

I could be patient.

disease

that is too hard for me to fix

We could help others fix it though.

where to start

fixing

it all?

My own back yard

is still the best place

for me to begin

simply

fixing

my world.
