The heart of darkness

Indifference tolls the knell of  humankind
So easy just to turn our eyes  away
We often self deceive   or  mimic  blind;
So Hitler goosestepped,as foolish Pope  but prayed

How bright the candlelight on Christmas trees
And  tender children  widen  joyous eyes
Yet for  the other,we will hear no pleas.
At every heartbeat  “foreign” babies die..

Can we love any but those who share our genes,
What sense the  tale of  Arab aiding Jew?
Is the underlying truth not seen?
As Jesus said the chosen are but few

We  split the world into a double view;
The good, the bad,the  heart of darkness slew.
