We lack



If people torture people in the name of religion
Its tolerance that we lack,
 If people deny equal opportunities to people in the name of race, caste and creed
Its respect that we lack,
 
If people neglect people with challenges
Its compassion that we lack,
 
If people wage wars on people for petty motives,
Its brotherhood that we lack,
 
The sun out there is impartial in its warmth
and so is the moon in its grace
 
Yet the fact that we live in a bordered world devoid of peace
is a consequence of the common sense that we lack


-Manan
