Scramble the signal
Influential presidential
Previous conditions
How can we let go
Of the most vulnerable
Let the needy fall first
How could we live with that
Profits soup packed bowl
Hoping to ring in the numbers
While other fall sick
That is not the goal of humanity
Or decency
Take care of each other
Thin out the fat cats
They need less cars
That’s for sure
Reminds us that we are human
The words
Ring out
Hopefully don’t fall short
What is the term honor
Honor for achievement
Honor for the moment
Honor for what reasons
What earns honor and distinguishment
I am certain that it is not a light word
Should be dispersed with great review
Discussion
Honor the people
Who honor this country
Not those who run loose
For when it is honor given
We hope not to lose
Certain now
That honor itself has become a point of confusion
Amusement
What honorable actions happened today
For such a reaction
Lights on the scene
Lights unseen
Halo burned out and smoking
Guns held up
Stoking
The national conversation and call
A tenuous decision
To watch it unfold
Is like watching old food
Grow mold
Another day
Another story
Words fall short from glory
I had no idea
The meaning of such words
Does it claim me
For its own
Is it a direct take
On being owned
A birth of populism
Has alway been around
I guess now
It’s just more prevalent
Then just hanging around
How could this be
The truth and I agree
There is no planet B
No do over
Mulligan or retry
We have to make what we have
Work
Agree to disagree
But mother nature will always be
And should be
Our top priority
Current sacrifice
Rather than living from a vice
Over consumption
Is our most destructive
Assumption
That is not alright and good
We must live the way we should
Treat this world with respect
Dignity
That is truly
The way it should be
What is today’s goal
Achievements roll
Tendencies and complacency
Intricacy of competency
How will I strive for new growth
Grow and grow
Then grow old
Today’s goal
Is a myriad of flavors
I will just make my best
On my best behavior
How we will remember moments
Is how we will remember feelings
No matter what the context
In front or the subset
We will remember most what we felt
Memories and facts hold little hope
When the heartfelt reactions we know
When another spoke
The truth be told
How will I remember now
As I grow old
Will it be funny or a mystery
Happy or misery
This level of uncertainty
Is certainly welcomed but noted
I guess I am just uncertain
How I will remember
This moment
Call it a win
Call it a loss
Call it whatever makes the boss
Happy
Cheery eyes and gleeful
Never has been a time
Quite so deceitful
Run amuck
But don’t run too much
Or work too hard
The words can be misconstrued
News becomes the lens
Which we see our lives through
So today
We must sit back and pull
The entertainment from the information
Nothing quite makes sense
And is a sore source of irritation
Return we may
But today
I guess perspective depend more about
How you say
Than what you say
A win
Or
A loss
Knowing when we are growing
Can be the most difficult wager
Speaking with a sage
In a small bar in NYC
Asking for advice
Eating cheap Thai food with rice
What will become of us
What will become of the little ones
How do we differentiate when
We consists of billions
Millions of questions
I guess this is how it goes
When it is your known time
To grow
Top of the afternoon
Rest of the morning
Test us in the evening
Sleep at night
Top of the afternoon friends
