Living Choices

No safe space Hate speech Medical records Science, adults and older children Families at war, religion screams Men, fathers, husbands attack Mothers less so, but still... Its hard, there are painful choices, Uncertainy rules Chaos creates less pain? Can we agree to work together Deal with the earth's problems Fight as a group to seek answers Struggle for life -- given severe drought and rains Still death threats abound Climate change, extreme weather Let some of these personal fights go Elect to save the world and let people Live and learn together with space The physical universe is stars and dust Older young ones must make their own choices Male or female, brain cells and sense Climate change is not a choice It is life or not for all living kind
