Time and time again
Throughout the centuries
How many times
Must it be repeated?
A countless number
Of treatise
And all too few
Have absorbed their meaning
Regarded as prodigies
But You ignore the messages
Of these few
Perceived as honorable
And You can`t find
The inner strength
To take to heart
Our responsibilities
And You have seen
The results from afar
Of perpetual neglect
Without a trace
Of empathy
So it will continue
That the words of wisdom
Will be ignored
Leaving us back
Right where we started
Wallowing aimlessly
In a world of ignorance
