Do Not
Entity of life:
Mortality in-between the walls.
The sky closing at last glance.
River's flowing tears of our children.
Families prosecuted before they sow,
the gold's of their heritage.
Darkness of flesh and mind,
separated by forsaken privilege.
Indulgence, un-repented hate, and
ambiguity, replaces..hope, forgiveness and
unselfish pride.
Our elder's painstakingly pushed aside.
Government deciding individual amenities.
Beauty of land and air ravished, unrelentless.
Each looking for riches undefined.
Seek justice, but do not lack honesty.
Create future, but do not take for granted.
Live for another, but do not bury yourself.
Turn your cheek, but do not chose harms way.
Educate, but do not wonder shallow.
Replenish food for the hungry, but do not anticipate favor.
Existentialize but grant pardon to mistake.
Revivify, but remember the old.
Most importantly, rain love, but do not wait to be loved.
