From what I can tell in my perusing of history,

It seems almost every culture across the world:

Divided community to spread greater distance,

Created fire to warm by and embrace another,

Exercised, birthed, foraged and cooked brews,

Fell asleep in habitation to dream imagination,

Magically discovered a knowledge of 1 + 1 = 2,

Acculturated personalities by caregiver hands,

Expressed playful agreement with all creatures,

Understood the similarities throughout ecology,

Chanted in tight social cliques with special rules,

Sharpened stone tools to use for hunting food,

Looked upon death and felt inner depth within,

Had specialists doing things not all others could,

Lived with elders teaching the young useful skill,

And looked above to wonder something beyond.

Our endless details of difference can be truly meaningless,

If we don’t first assume the broadness of our commonality,

And build a global paradise that lives for those shared goals.

For in paradise do we enfold nature,

And let the waters flow to the garden,

To tend green garments within deserts,

So all living thing may prosper and grow.
