Changes

Pinpointing the very moment your rose coloured glasses came off and the curtain opened a terrifying moment seeing evil working in plain sight bringing in the digital age the climate change cage all the sweet lies with deceit and corruption the truth may be painful but a foundation to move forward we ride on the back of history we want wars and hunger to end we want warm houses and food to eat we have some hope in all that is messed can be fixed soon that truth overcomes lies.

Politics and Politician mixed with billionaires and cyber space and the digital age, are all an unknown quantity, we must listen to a lot and believe half of what they have to say. Great write Phyllis. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer
