seeking sanity

In our democratic republic,

if we don't like our government

we can change it

However, that requires solidarity,

while what we mostly have

is divisiveness

 

 

 

Haters to the left of me

Haters to the right of me

Politics has become a hater's game

Weaponizing shame and blame

Keeping us all enslaved to

emotional memes

Everyone feels afraid

Nobody gets what we need

for healthful well-being

 

What if we all could make the change

Move out of hate, into sanity?

Sane to the left of me

Sane to the right of me

All able to acquire our fair share

of fulfilling desires, in peace

Free to each have our say

 

 

 

Profound ordinary moments

call to me as feeling laden scenes

immediate, sensory

How I have become,

relayed images

like this:
