Life Rings!

Life Rings!

Life rings are always rigmaroles and pricking

Oh how we desire to be identified as the special ones

How we desire to be in classes and statuses

How we long to draw the lines that envelop few

Every single day we long to join the key rings

The rings of; the G8, the poets, the intellects, the leaders,

The business class, the writers, the believers, the atheists and

Many more unending rings which I’m sure ring a bell to all

We are daily entering or leaving these rings

We build rings to feel secure from others

We build them to form classes away from others

We build them to prove some points to others

We build them to set boundaries between us n’ others

We build them to feed our egos on others

But is life all about us?

How about them; the others? The ‘rest’ as we like to call them...

By building rings don’t we leave others out in insecurity?

By building them don’t we outclass others?

By building them don’t we assume others are pointless?

By building them don’t we exclude others?

By building them don’t we crash others self esteem?

We may never stop building these rings

But we should always be watchful on what each brings

We should endeavour to love beyond the rings

Leave beyond the rings and to invite all into

The one and only eternal ring

 Where justice and righteousness reign
