Poem 257

Life as we known it

Has came and went

And much direction is happening

Along with lots of concealment

As the current circumstances

And disturbing predicament

Living within a thunder storm

That is well outside the norm

Looms daily and nightly

And steadily on the rise

Came as a shock and also with

A very troubling surprise

And the true nature and size

Of this situation

Is quite difficult to say

As fear and panic

Are constantly on display

But unfortunately

These very unsettling things

Are a huge and negative motivator

When it brings with it

Nothing more than control

Liberties lost and freedoms tossed

That many fought hard for

And I’m sure they’re turning over

In their graves

From all that is taking place

And what exactly will we

All think and say

When we’re in the future

And look back upon these days

And upon this time

As we fell in line

And just stood by

Watching this happen

And caving in around us

For this is sad indeed

And very hurtful in between

For a peaceful and immediate rescue

Is in dire and desperate

Want and need

As one would have to be blind and asleep

To agree with such horrible things

As much darkness is in play

Very exposed and seen

Happening all over the world

And among various degrees

As many would say

For this is truly of epic proportions

And many atrocities along with

High levels of corruption and greed

All while continuing to expect

Everyone to just simply bow down

But is this truly the way

We are going to fall down

Instead of standing up and demanding

A huge change of action

Along with uniting

Garner and gathering

Some strength and hope

Someway and somehow

For I could go on and on here

About all of this

But I believe my point has been made

Clear and also left

For too much is going wrong

And none of this is right

Too much darkness

Instead of light

As we must fight

For better days

And no matter what

The skin or race variety

For we are truly living within

The storm of society

*The Quiet Storm In Motion
