Beautiful and Amazing
12/14/20
Since the dawn of time it was illustrating
One was dominating
The other was failing
There was no relating
Only hating
And instigating
All this debating
And complaining
With poor negotiating
To the youth, what are we demonstrating?
So much division and not a lot of aiding
Sure there is some trading
But there is also raiding
And invading
To this day, time has shown and been displaying
It's dismaying
Opportunities seized or are fading
Does no good to just be waiting
People playing
People saying
Strange things
Evil in the making
Homages their paying
As they partake in praying
On the go or staying
Peaceful or always preying
Money continually draining or saving
To the system still slaving
Soon to be caving
And misbehaving
One's own path they're paving
And trailblazing
Or they are just waiving
Never braving
Always giving into cravings
Wasting
Always in last they are placing
Too many people shading
And shaming
Truth is life is fascinating
And entertaining
Yet it is also devastating
And frustrating
With other lifeforms, I am communicating
Continually sailing
Working towards prevailing
As I keep aging
The body slowly degrading
In my heart it's always raining
But I am not complaining
Occasionally stargazing
Still facing any undertaking
Life I'm embracing
B.S. I can no longer be chasing
Look around, life can be beautiful and amazing
