Trouble With Today
Greed, hate, animosity,
Blinded by the hopes we cannot see.
Banks won’t balance everyone’s financial needs,
Bullets to fill the air, causing the soulful to bleed.
Gas prices, oil prices, paying the price,
Uncle Sam is no longer being nice.
Gratitude is gone like yesterday’s news,
Someone out there demands that you lose.
Weekly check, weekly pay,
Criminal records to deny your say.
Mistake now made never forgiven,
Oppression and terrorism is today’s modern sin.
Hating words, hating those who are nude,
Want to kill all those who are lewd.
Never with a fraction of seeing the good,
Ask yourself, “Why I should?”
Freedom isn’t free on the thankless days.
Pay broken crooks punish the innocent in every way.
Coward we become behind the labels we desperately need.
No one will take it upon themselves to plant the positive seeds.
The trouble with today is we sacrifice too much.
Gave up on the virtues that make our lives blessed.
We wonder in silent pity why we did such.
Everything is now beyond a fixable discombobulating mess.
This isn’t true. It will take effort to fix.
Put your mind to it and create your own mix.
Of what it means to be bless with freedom this day.
Thank you solders who died for us all to even have a say.
Bastardize what you are bless with,
Bad karma will return to you.
Try being thankful with all that you can do.
No one is ever going to be perfect 100% of the way.
Always demanding such and disrespecting those who aren’t that,
This is the trouble with today.
Oil or religion or freedom of speech.
Politics or wars or ways to preserve the peace.
Evil work too fast and sometimes in nasty ways.
To give up fighting the good fight.
And put and end to the troubles of today.
Be thankful and bless that we have such good wealth.
We much all stabilize what will keep us all in good health.
Stop with the greed and stop with the pain.
Help put and end to everything that has us insane.
Rather it be sex or work or daily living being normal.
Unite together to keep what our unique differences are formal.
The world isn’t perfect 100% of someone’s perceived way.
Doesn’t mean we give up helping to end the troubles with today.
So peace be with all and may we all find what we seek.
Freedom in heart and soul, love, hope and care is what we must keep.
Happy Memorial Day.
