Men of Peace
There have been many men of war
They come and they go.
Do you remember all their names?
That is because it is easier to fight
Than it is to be intelligent.
In the fullness of time
the men whom
everyone everywhere remembers
The men whom we teach our children
to aspire to
The men on whose words
our science, entire religions, cultures
and systems of morality
are all built around.
Jesus, Mohammad, Socrates
Aristotle, Plato,
Confucius, Lao Tzu,
Gandhi, King,
Buddha, and Mandela
These, my friends,
were men of peace.
