There is more than enough, more than enough food, water
to sustain the planet, that poverty, that hunger
would vanish from the face of the earth. No more.
It is will alone, selfishness, a choice, free will
We choose to order the world, haves and have nots
Not random chance, not something outside our control
Choices near and far, building on history, indifference
tolerance for inequity. No more.
Today is the start, a spotlight on injustice
a world crying out. No more.
Let these seeds bloom and grow
let the world together hear their single message
let each one do their part. No more.
