If We Look To Each Other

We will only look past each other,
If we tend to look to the past.

But if we look to each other,
No alternative will be passed.

If we listen to each other,
We will enjoy a great repast.

If we run past each other,
We will drop the ball that is being passed.

If we no longer call on each other,
We will taste only a sour repast.

If we only look past each other,
Opportunities for a better way of living will be lost to the past.
