Children Of Abraham (A Message for Moshe)
Moshe, May you grow to understand That all the children of Abraham Have failed in their Father's eyes. Each, By their own design, Believe that their way to be divine And death for those they despise. Think Before you retaliate. Fail to emancipate The hatred that you will grow into. Peace Must come from within Before you can begin To relinquish the anger that you will hold onto. Beget Not the pain foolish, prideful men created As they changed your innocence, now faded. Leaving your parents' blood running cold. Stop And spread no further distress. This cycle you must repress When the urge to strike back takes hold. Moshe, Let Abraham sleep peacefully. Do not live your life vengefully. Remember always, but do not react. Teach His children and show them humanity And perhaps someday, through your humility, You will give them what they've forgotten back.
