Dichotomy

We put childproof locks on aspirin bottles

but we won't childproof children from shooters

We put food in plastic containers

but we won't stop plastic containers from killing our oceans

We put carbon dioxide in our atmosphere that causes climate change

but we won't fight global warming

We clear rain forest for farming

but we won't feed those who are starving

We create medicine to heal us

but we won't make it affordable

We put drugs in our bodies to keep us from pain

but we won't stop killing ourselves with drugs

We put the politicians in office to make laws

but we won't hold them accountable when they break them

We blame those who are different from us for our problems

but the problems are of our own creation

We ask God for a solution, we think he’s not listening

but in the silence, he answers

LOVE
