Hey, everyone who hates government
or thinks they have a better system:
Let's see your idea for a lovable government
the sane relationship between capital
and labor would be a thriving mutually
beneficial partnership --
so why can't we get along?
Pollution echoes through us
messes with human genetic code
Not so much greed as selfishness
disconnection, consciousness of
self-reliance in a world of dangerous
strangers
I always thought that normal folk
knew unspoken social rules
but maybe they are better at
game playing
I always knew I had no aptitude
for lying manipulation
Maybe that is all it has ever been
no prize to comprehend or win
just a fancy dance for debutants
and kings to show their wares.
The extras stand outside in the snow
and stare, teary-eyed.
Discerning this, I'd rather find
a more exhilarating vision.
We need not conform to connotations.
So much confusion, chaos, panic
Opportunity for those with clear goals.
Representatives of all communities
not based on zip codes
but commonalities of interest
and need, so every stakeholder
gets a vote (and chance to say their
piece, try to convince) in how we
proceed.
Yes, we express, extol fine ideals
but it's the practical details that
make a movement move,
give a people structure to improve
their days and years
Grow leadership of those who
display good will while competent,
reliable, inherently fair-minded,
not blinded by shiny distractions.
My New Year wish: Where we keep
our consciousness,
those
thoughts that carry us along
is what we will manifest –
not woo woo, but the basis of subjective
realities
Enjoy a Glorious 2023
manifest your best year ever!
1/1-7/23
