I See Beyond

I see beyond the painted smiles of the greatest politicians, I hear beyond the words of faulty preachers who speak about afflictions, I see beyond the economic crisis that keeps so many in fear, I hear beyond the trivial chatter in a room filled with endless beer, I see beyond the crooked look when the landlord raised the rent, I hear beyond the pickup line presented as a compliment, I see beyond the apology when humility took three weeks, I hear beyond the child’s grumble when she was told no more hide and seek, I see beyond not meeting his mother too soon to avoid a catastrophe, I hear beyond the word maybe, that means NO usually.
