If I could cast a spell to eradicate all evil I would
To flood-fill the Earth with nothing but good
But the question arises ‘where to draw the line?
On whose definition, yours or mine?’
The division between evil and good is vague
Depending on which side of the fence you take
Wars have been fought over this divide
Where the realms of good and evil collide
If I could cast a spell to eradicate evil should I?
Take the chance before it passes me by?
Mould the world into the world that I want
Send evil away with a laugh and a taunt?
If I could cast a spell to eradicate evil I would
As long as the outcome was purely for good
But I can only affect my part of the world
No matter the magical power unfurled
And with three-fold-return things must be done with care
Perhaps replacing magic with a simple prayer
Intention is great for all that it’s worth
But can intention alone save the Earth?
The Mansionic Perspective 
Would I? Could I? Should I ?Together could we.?

It’s all about perspective Beverly. If we all saw everything the same way, we probably could, but then we wouldn’t be individual.

A magic wand may be needed, but from who or where? Good questions♡

Thanks, Cheryl. Magic is most definitely needed here – but more for clarity than anything else!
