A Little This and That

A little sadness is all I need All I ever need to keep alive A providence today weeps For what I have done to survive? A little happiness is all I need All I ever need to stay away from sadness I will beg and plead Given our unsatisfactory growing dominance A little understanding is all I need But as humanity do we grow further away I am no more humane to finally seek When what I see is what of everyday A little polarity collaboration is all I need Selfish be… yet to work when needed be as one We have a world with our worlds never to meet We all have to understand our needs to be done What were the things we need? Have you done something beyond? Did what we want make us weak? Have we a humanity to belong?
