In This Crazy World

By Poet "In this crazy world we must now live. Be loving and be kind, it is free so give it away."
Today living in this crazy old world, where our own feelings seem to be unfurled, are we becoming robots looking burled?
Some of the good things in life cost nothing, should we all spend more time being loving, our many bad words we should be crushing.
Many words and actions have strong power, wear a big smile like a pretty flower, our words and actions should be sweet not sour.
Loving kindness can come in any size, make someone's day a wonderful surprise, take them to watch a beautiful sunrise.
Kindness costs nothing so give it away, in this crazy world we live day-to-day.

You know, folks used to talk about having a 'chip on their shoulder.' If the technocrats get their way, babies will have 'a chip' implanted in their brain while still in the womb. We'll all be 'AI.' Grisly future, isn't it?!
