Reveling in inequities and basking in vainglorious pride
The world is a divided kingdom with nowhere to hide
As lives are lost in despicable acts of wanton ignorance and intransigence
Power and politics are altars at which is sacrificed common sense
Hoping against hope for a resplendent, optimistic and new beginning
Where solidarity and reciprocity represent the new in thing.
