Intolerance


With a diverse culture
heritage and race,
Can countries 
states and society, 
manage balanced harmony 
woven by faith
between different beliefs?
 
Rigid in their stand,
Each community differs
To impose their say
Over others,
But assume 
What they rule is 
Nothing but the truth!
 
Tolerant DNA comes from faith,
Attached to a live and let live factor,
While contradictions and intolerance,
Breath terror and insanity,
All reasons become outcast,
Corruption and prolonged power,
Seeps into ones perverted actions;
 
Become tolerant to be intolerant,
Or intolerant to show tolerance,
In the end it is the human values,
Morals and ethics that stand by you:
Not self greed, dirty politics, corruption,
or a reign of terror you could whip up
to reap a rewards on past lies you told.
