Melting Pot
Human Shields ?
Or “Safety in Numbers”
From Rush “Territories”
The whole wide world
An endless universe
Yet we keep looking through
The eyeglass in reverse
Don’t feed the people
But we feed the machines
Can’t really feel
What international means
In different circles, we keep holding our ground
Indifferent circles, we keep spinning round and round
We see so many tribes overrun and undermined
While their invaders dream of lands they’ve left behind
Better people…better food…and better beer…
Why move around the world when Eden was so near?
The bosses get talking so tough
And if that wasn’t evil enough
We get the drunken and passionate pride
Of the citizens along for the ride
Wouldn’t it stand to reason, to encourage lots of immigration of every citizen from all over the planet to not only immigrate to America, but all other countries as well?
Therefore, creating a situation where no location would be attacked because their “home” country would not want to circumstantially hurt their brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers, sons and daughters?
Basically, becoming planetarily “borderless” (which, it is) so that every bi-pedal oxygen breathing, red-blooded, skeleton supported, carbon-based earth inhabitant, would have the willful freedom to become the best person they could be without living in fear and feeling compelled to intentionally or unintentionally teach their offspring that their differences not only, aren’t celebrated but have to be minimized and controlled .
Otherwise, what are we “really” doing here?
Nevermind, I just realized I fell asleep, listening to John Lennon’s “Imagine” on repeat on my I pod .
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace, you
But I’m not the only one
I hope some day you’ll join us
And the world will be as one
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world, you
But I’m not the only one
I hope some day you’ll join us
And the world will be as one
