Loose not End (exert)
To lose or not to lose,
That is the question that’s not a ruse.
Failing to achieve your goals
Can be a piercing knife to souls
That fall into depression if their
Goals are delayed or failed, their flair
Is indomitable in its will to overcome obstacles
That bend your will, but it’s never broken or stills.
Betrayal (exert)
Of my country and of my family
I have little to say, except that funny
Interactions are not always sunny …
A country’s politics and sense of justice
Can disappoint. Its favor is sandy grace
That’s gritty, scratchy, and hurts in place
Of unity that proves our solidarity in face
Of torment, terror, injustice, that train
Citizens in complacency that will rain
Upon them death, disillusionment that fain
A reality that exists in dreams that are slain.
