Confucius Spoke Thus…

By Lynn Ockersz

Confucius the illustrious sage,Says thus to the human race -‘Life is really simple,But we insist on making it complicated’…He must have had in mind,Those claiming purity in ‘race’,Whose words have bred,Centuries-long bloody travails…

But if these sowers of discontent,Take a simple DNA test,They’d find that their identity,Resides in the whole human race,For, their blood lines are too far flung,To track down to a definitive base.
