At This Very Moment

by

Clive Michie

At this very moment
      Nations rise up against each other
        People spread their hatred
          A child misses a parent

At this very moment
      Nations with less then what we waste
        People work for pennies
          A child goes to sleep starving

At this very moment
      A human sits in a café
        Complains about their order
          Too much pepper how dare you

At this very moment
      Someone shares their love
        Someone’s hand is extended
          At this very moment.
