King-Sized Bull Crap Machine Busters

You are the light
From the small crack in the door.
Illuminate your darkness.
Feed the deprived
With your good thoughts.

You are the bearer of World Peace.
Show the others how to be.
Don't be offended.
Don't get sucked in.

You are the path 
They must walk.
To punish, prod, or persecute
Is playing the lower game while

You are a star 
Shot across the sky.
The mean people are beneath you,
(Literally)
So that you may lift them into the night
To be reborn the next day.

What does this all mean?
You wonder in your daydream.

Don't take the high road
Without the deplorables alongside you.

Just as you wouldn't marry a brown toad
Before saying "I love you."
