Corruct politicians commit crimes Overlooked for their power trumps Reality, facts, fairness, equality, Remembering that by creating Unprecedented division, depravity, you Part unity of the people whose humanity Tends to be set aside for peer pressure Imposing the rule of the deceiver Operating on manipulating those weaker Needing corruption to be rampant while they plan.

A smile of kindness is all it takes to lift a soul Up from feeling lonely, so smile At the clerk, complement them And listen to their reaction, a gem,
As their smile lights their eyes And opens up a conversation of trivialities That boost the soul, motivating Them to simply enjoy the day while the sun’s shining.
It’s those simple acts of kindness That distinguish our uniqueness And humanity from those who’ve Lost their compassion and empathy for love

As the sun rises, illuminating the fields With a golden hue, I open my window To bare witness, in silence, to the brew that leads To hopes clinging to harvests that blow
Your senses with their generosity: In beauty that’s uplifting, In harvests that keep hunger at bay by Providing healthy nutrition while quieting
The doubts from within, whose heads Try to rise above the sun, yet it steals Its effectiveness delivering leads Whose purpose is to uplift you from reels
Of horror that embue despair Without a care for frailty, disrepair’s Power travels within susuration’s flair That are seemingly quiet, but bares
Your soul to mistrust your power For the buzzing of disrespect Causes pain in every aspect that’ll glower At the rest to subdue your rebel’s act
As to have a stake in controlling Your actions that protect humanity, It’s lands to stave famine, opposing The status quo is to rise to the top with quiet unity.

The rhetoric, philosophy about the meaning of life Has been in existence since the beginning of time, Yet, for each generation, a new theory creates strife In the souls of those in their prime
Needing an answer to consolidate An identity they’ve forgotten existed For following the trends gives a state Of uncertainty for none are God send,
Rather, they derive pleasure in creating Confusion and lack on comprehension That creating your own meaning To life is a necessary gift of compassion
For only when you’ve created it Will you fight for it, never giving Up on its dreams, an opportunity that bit Out the uncertainty, giving rise to humanity’s creating.

Trapped Humanity
A light breeze picks up and flings dried leaves Into the air scraping along the asphalt and grass. Outside, the sun is shining brightly, but within The window, where the air is stale from fear of pain Everyone seems to be hiding behind squares of glass Letting life pass them by as their isolation presses Down on their sanity, and cabin fever rises. People’s tempers become unbearable, Spouses, children, friends, and close ones Bear the brunt of each other’s ire, sparingling They calm one another, worrying how long This pandemic will stop the living from really living.
It feels like the walls are closing in on me, Where none were there before. Don’t let your confinement bind your movement, Health, prayer, belief, courage, and helpfulness. Your humanity, sanity, and health will be no less Important in understanding one another’s plight, And disdaining those who have so little value for light, Life, liveliness, and loving, a death sentence, bright In its suffocating need to oppress While faith is for the living that’ll never press Depression into hearts stagnant from hibernation.

Button Moulder
Button molds are varied in colors, Shapes, sizes, materials that alters The appearance of our clothing Making us better looking.
As the button moulder statue made From shoulders, one arm folded, never faded, Enormous binoculars for gazing At life’s beauty through peering
From the button’s eye, never veiled By social screens of a fast-paced Life filled with the ultra superficial That tends towards the unforgiveable
That’s filled with violence of blood, Addiction that lives in your blood, Actions that turn a child into an orphan, Stomping on other’s rights to be open,
Open to immorality that needs To destruction of family unity that breeds Bonds of compassion, empathy, forgiveness That our superficiality doesn’t harness
The power of discipline, strength of will, Faith and belief in yourself that’ll never fall For if society embued us with that, then Rebellion would ensue as a ban for politics with pen.

Mission: Escape
Whenever mankind faces existential problems They have two possible opposing reactions: Escape the present, and start somewhere else; Or alter your priorities to advance survival of humanity.
Historically, when Europe wanted to get rid of criminals, They placed them on a boat to the then ‘savagery’ Of North America, where indigenous people Roamed freely, thriving without the need That are imposed by the ‘guests’ who shot And killed indiscriminately to take over the lands. From this grew capitalist society that takes Advantage of its population to grow in powers.
Today, there are no undiscovered territories or unexploited ones. So … What recourse does humanity have for its survivals? All that’s left is space, Mars, our closest Neighbor Is millions of miles away with an uninhabitable atmosphere. Technology is advancing at such an exponential rate That a mission to Mars is a proven possibility.
Man’s an ostrich!!!! He hides from his problems rather than face them! Instead of spending billions on fixing earth, He spends hundreds of billions on space travels. How can we progress if we can’t solve our obstacles? Civilizations will die down because of this, And people’s acceptance of change is in paralysis.
