Once, when a friend of mine wore a button stating “War is not the
answer!”, a man asked her, “So, what is
the answer?” Her instant reply: “Potluck!”
Animosity
Causes
Those involved to behave
Irrationally.
Obstacles such as this will
Never allow for peace.

Your poem is completely true.
And your friend's answer was true too. It reminds me of humanity's shared past, once based on what a great thinker of our time, Charles Eisenstein, calls the Gift Economy. A clear examples of the gift economy is the potlatch tradition from the First Peoples of the Pacific Northwest ---wealth based not on ownership but on gifting. http://sacred-economics.com/
So much for my vow to avoid lengthy comments....
I appreciate your lengthy comment, particularly the website you mention.
