There Is a Place

There is a place where the asphalt flowers grow into the glittering light of glory There is a place where black vultures lived with eyes of red and feathers are coarsely There is a place where dreams are no longer dreams they are now success stories There is a place where color is just a color and characteristics matter more There is a place where more bodies are in education facilities and less in the morgue There is a place where chains of past tribulations are broken into four There is a place where our past faults we cannot ignore but make better in the future There is a place where human beings think with their minds and not a computer There is a place where money is the evil of the world and love is the ruler There is a place where everyone can run to and feel safe with no higher power or authority involved There is a place where problems are resolved and words of wisdom are devolved There is a place where the sun shines down on the helpless people and brings them joy There is a place where failure is no option as long as you have Foy There is a place where tears mean happiness and not great grief There is a place where we are treated like we’re meant to be and not what we used to be
