I Weep for the old folks who were pepper sprayed,
I shed Tears
That we are continually divided.
My heart Breaks when I see Videos,
Showing pointless violence,
Against
Those who express opinions differing from my own.
~
My Heart Cringes at the thought that with so much
Plenty,
Many of my people go Hungry.
I Shudder to think of
All the empty and abandoned apartment buildings
And Houses, as
Homeless people wander and
Break into those empty places for warmth or
Shelter.
My heart BREAKS, my eyes water with
Anger,
Knowing these things need
Not Be So;
If only we would open our
Eyes
To SEE those who are behind
The scenes manipulating events.
~
As long as we cannot see the
TRUTH;
Work TOGETHER to
Make needed changes,
We'll not realize that
The real power is
OURS, not that of
The puppeteers
