Invisible Bull

*The Echo Chamber's Emergency Exit*

We live in an echo chamber of violence,
Where words and ideas resonate,
Around and around in the hollow halls,
Around and around without end,
Around and around without a point,
Around and around and around and around, around and around again.
+++
People yell self righteously,
And their hatred reverberates,
The echos validates their words,
Whilst more words regurgitate.
+++
But all people really want is to leave,
This horrible chamber of hurts,
We wish to cleanse our tainted selves,
In the waterfalls of peace.
+++
There is an emergency exit lit up,
It is not at all hidden from view,
But we'd all have to learn to co-operate,
If we want to avoid getting crushed.
+++
The exit door is open wide,
But too many fear the echoes.
Just one chime alone is all it would take,
To make us shut up and listen.
+++
One toll of peace in the chamber war.
We'd all follow if that bell rang,
We would dance hand in hand through the doors to the land
Where the waterfalls flow with peace.
