Poisoning your food.
Polluting the air you breathe.
Destroying your economy.
Removing you from your homes…
Obtained through bad loans,
Condoned by another’s greed.
I am not the one…
Taking your employment,
And giving those jobs away…
To those overseas.
I am not the one deceiving your trust.
I am the one who has been honest to you.
Why do you say I bring to you disgust?
Truth has never brought to me an enemy…
That offended my beliefs to protect defensively.

They don’t want to be real.

The real tragedy today that exists,
With mindsets rapidly diminished.Fixed and glued unchanging,On a fast paced landscape.In a stationary place…Slowly eroding,And being erased.There are those who stay unfazed.Sitting stubbornly in positions…And restricting themselves as they age!Becoming the ones undaunted.With demands to have things done.As it had been in those ‘olden days’…When even the ones who once lived back then,Will never again…
