A FIRE IN ME IS BURNING
THE WORLD IS SUCH A MESS
AND THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO
WORLD WIDE FAMINE-PEOPLE DYING OF AIDS
WAR EVERYWHERE AS WE NEAR THE END OF DAYS
JUST LIKE IT WAS TOLD LONG, LONG AGO
THINGS WOULD HAPPEN AND WE SHOULD HAVE KNOWN
MAN IS TOO GREEDY AND HE WANTS TOO MUCH
HE DOESN'T LOVE HIS BROTHER
HE'S LOST THE HUMAN TOUCH
THE FIRE IN ME STILL BURNS
AND I'M AS HELPLESS AS CAN BE
AS WE DESTROY THE AIR, THE EARTH AND SEA
PROFIT AND POWER BRINGING MAN TO HIS KNEES
THE WORLD IS STILL TURNING
POLITICIANS AT PLAY
FIGHTING FOR POSITION
TO RULE THE WORLD TODAY
MAN IS TOO GREEDY AND HE WANTS TOO MUCH
HE DOESN'T LOVE HIS BROTHER
HE'S LOST THE HUMAN TOUCH

Brilliant write with such a strong message.
The two of you work well together.

Myself, the bold type doesn't work well but that is just my opinion.

I do agree we have lost the human touch, the love and kindness of others. If we can regain that the world will follow.

You have lots of thoughts and that is good. But most impressive is the fact that you included your co-author. Thank you for sharing.
