Let live...but not too much

“Live and let live” as they say…
Here´s a good catch-phrase to live by…it seems.
A flag waving for tolerance of others,
Indulging a naive expectation of return.


An easy graffiti to paint on the wall,
To some reality that is always convinced it will fall.
An individual demand on public wall,
But always seems a forceful act of cracking the whole.

There´s a bird that always lived and let live,
But now the bird turned into eagle.
At the top of the cliff made its nest,
And inside the baggage always carries its “Live and let live”.

Now, there are too many birds with same catch-phrase down there,
And all of them have written on the public wall the name of their baggage.
Hope is that the majority of birds down there will sing the same song of the eagle,
Otherwise, at the top of the cliff, rests an eagle eager to better the trees,
And as once was told, there is nothing that is good for the eagle that won´t be good for all birds.
