HEARTS OF STONE
LOOK AT YOUR ANGER, LOOK AT YOUR FURY;
MAN HAS PROCLAIMED HIMSELF JUDGE AND JURY.
EVEN THE SLIGHTEST OF ALTERCATION
IS MET WITH REVENGE AND RETALIATION.
EACH VIOLENT ACT HAS AN EQUAL REACTION,
AND THIS CYCLE CONTINUES WITHOUT SATISFACTION.
YOU COUNTER INJUSTICE WITH AN EYE FOR AN EYE;
DOES YOUR IMPULSIVE REACTION YOUR THIRST SATISFY?
THE FATHER NO LONGER ON HIS SON CAN RELY;
A MOTHER HER INFANT’S TEARS DOES NOT DRY.
HOW SAD, MY DEAR CHILDREN, AS ALL THIS WE SEE,
SUCH LACK OF COMPASSION, SUCH INHUMANITY.
LAY DOWN YOUR WEAPONS OF EGO AND PRIDE
AND ASK GOD FOR MERCY WHICH ONLY HE CAN PROVIDE.
ONLY THEN WILL YOU KNOW, ONLY THEN WILL YOU FEEL
WHAT GOD IN HIS WISDOM TO YOU WILL REVEAL.
I CALL ALL MY CHILDREN WHOM I CAN STILL REACH;
AS YOUR LOVING MOTHER EACH ONE I BESEECH.
PRAY FOR THE HEARTS THAT HAVE TURNED TO STONE
THAT THEY FOR THEIR ACTIONS TO MY SON ATONE.
“THY WILL BE DONE”
