Be Watchful

What a wonderful world!

Full of beauty and inspiration

in art, science, music,

rife with invention.

Yet the biggest egos

yell the loudest

causing the rifts

and cultural shifts,

shock the heart

and numb the mind,

staining the day

with splatters of gray.

What will come?

What will come?

The games they play

for egos sated,

drag the rest of us

into the fray, weighted

with fright.

Lost lives,

wonders never invented,

poems never written,

songs never heard,

culture is smitten

with stupid hate games.

What will come?

What will come?

Be attentive, my friend.
Be attentive!
