Peace cannot be forced,
pushed onto a nation.
Anger cannot be left alone.
In time it heats up, boils into
liquid gas
till the venomous ghost
fills up the room.
Take anger.
Hold it in your hands.
Let it go.
Let the snake slither away,
The fish swim into the ocean
Or the falcon fly skyward.
Sit.
Too long have you stood
inside the raging battle.
Watch the sky flow by,
and pull over its blue sheet.
Watch the tide move in slowly.
It does not worry what today
or tomorrow will bring.
It does not care.
It just is.
Watch the sky inflame so beautifully
Till all is hidden in its womb.
Till the sky becomes the ocean.
Watch everything that is beautiful live as one
and that is peace.
