I wrote this one for the pub post on confrontation.
Fair

Living in an unjust world
a life at end folds
mortal, soft, so unfair

Illness, nature, governments
too often cold and cruel 
random evils, war, pestilence

Love, kind deeds
i hope my epitaph
not fight at drop of hat

People not taught
to value civility
see love in their eyes

Life teaching hardness
no tools to express
that gentle human side

I think the only one
worth the precious
time to harsh confront

To make sure right 
being done day to day
no unecessary hurt

The only place of control
action and reaction
that one being me

What a fabulous piece you have here!!! And it just to me screams the only one we can control in this chaotic world is ourselves. You hit it dead on to me. And most certainly people are simply just not taught not only to value civility but to encompass it their very self!!!

Very well put!   what it comes down to is thereselves!  Do they have self-control?  Half of us no most don't, we have controlled substances controlling us.  Man this is excellent.. Rog, I could get into a serious whole conversation with you.  This has your mind thinking..  Vision and twinking..  Thinks!
and Thanks!  Excellent.

Really excellent thought provoking poem Rog.
True we can only control ourselves and our own attitudes to the things happening around us.
So I suppose we can choose happiness every single day though sometimes it's not easy.

I tend to agree with your philosophy in this poem... I wish I could follow it more, but I tend to effect, and affect change on other people's lives more so than on my own.

I think people forget what being civil is... society glorifies villlians, look @ them with their own reality shows, not because they are witty, not because they are special, not even because they have much of a personality but because they are mean and nasty... I was just telling a friend of mine that it doesn't take much effort to be mean, but it takes effort to be nice when people don't deserve it or are being rude...

Oh I wouldn't be nice to them but wouldn't spend any energy and consider that I found out the easy way to not be in their compny if there is anyway not to. Some get angry and confront rude people. Only if absolutely necessary is my feeling. Great to see you and yep values are a mess.
