Now what

now

that we build

our buildings

castles for bigger egos

now

that we digged

for gold

and energy

as if there is no

bottom

in the end

now

that we blew

the fire

higher and higher

now

that we are playing

as if it was

for life and death

now

that we produced

for the market

we created first

by greed

now

that we spent

more money

than we have

ever had

now

that the god

we served

has been denied

neglected

and ignored

now

that we sing

our songs

of freedom

and everything

seems possible

what else can we get

what more can be done

how much higher

can our goals grow

yes

what more

can more do

to everything

whe cannot keep

after all

now

when the night

is falling

now

that we loose

control

now

that buildings

are empty

and houses are full

of stuff

we did not need

at all

now

that we

amused ourselves

to death

hearts are lonely

and families broken

now

that our leaders

do not know

at all

what the next step

for a possible solution

might be

and even now

disagree

with everyone else

now

that questions

cannot be answered

now

that people

everywhere

on our planet

are dying

from hunger

and wars

***

... now what ...

***

now what

more can we do

can we be

can we expect

now where

should we go

from now on

who knows

any answers

and who is

in control

now who

is the master

and where is the leader

with the guts to change

us all

now

is the time

to kneel down

to the wounded

the injured

to the broken dreams

and empty promises

now is the time

to bury egos

come to our purpose

change

to our deeper selves

now is the time

to look up

higher and higher

now is the time

to pray

and make a choice

forget the money

forget the goals

forget anything else

that buries our heart

it is idle

it is vain

it is empty

let us open up

and empty

all sins and sorrow

worries and pain

no longer neglect

our shame

and loneliness

but
acknowledge

the desire

of life

and love

light

and eternity

and finally

meet our maker

face to face

realise

our dream

and his dream

at the same time
