Shawn Gorsick Poet Free verse

have not thought of what to call it read and leave ideas

A friend once said to me in the most underweighted way he could have used this truth
 which made it carry even more weight if you can believe that, maybe you had to be there
  either way let me go ahead and share this little gem i wouldn't want to be uncouth 
  "Today's expectations are tomorrows resentments" Yea it hit me hard to, i sware

  Now i have heard some good ones and keep them in my pocket for the right occasion
   cause words have no weight unless you speak them in the right order at the right time
   so that the hallucination it invokes resonates with the moment in time the kind of delivery that
    receives a standing ovation
     it doesn't have to be parable or rhyme, but it helps if its catchy but its ok if it's not a chime

      the goal is to inspire wisdom through short meme like quips
       which is especially relevant in today's 30 second of clip world
       Its rare a actual deep conversation on a single subject doesn't slip
      into the rabbit hole where a table sits and hot tea is poured

      Truth is not the point today only what readers can weave into their ideas
       willing to make a stand on misinformation because the abundance of lies
        that the internet shows truth can be whatever you want to believe and say it is
        I mean it can't accept alternative facts the most unwise ever spoken, truth dies

       Are expectation to be right and find truth on are computers is great now
        the resentment will come if people ever take the time or get the intelligence to see the scam
        a country where the president's words can change the Dow and insider trading is allowed
         among politicians and no one seems to notice or give a damn

       So i still say The problem with the world today is to many belief-based facts 
       not enough fact-based beliefs 
        maybe i am just throwing pearls when acorns will do.
        but a man can dream
         though it might cost him his life if tells it to anyone
