Original Design

We all share a human template, 
both in body and in spirit.
Unprovoked we’d still be trusting and benign.


Only due to interference 
from belligerent surroundings
we lose track off our original design.


With our blueprint overwritten 
by inhuman thought-constructions,
we lose contact with what’s innocent and good.


Shape our climate in our image. 
We reduce the provocation
when we build ourselves a friendly neighborhood.
