Palatable and Charitable

__Attestation to our sweet dreams__

We can’t beef
We’re far from it
We can’t leave
We’re richer than that

We can apologize
When we’re wrong
We can publicize
When we’re strong

We’re not mad
We’re conscious of time
And so we’ll be heard
At exactly the time

We have depth in us
We dream of what is feasible
We’re wise and a brilliant source…
We’re meaningful and capable

All we have in our desires are real
And they are worth in our dreams
Medals and wordsmith meal
Are perhaps minimal in our rhythm?

We struggle in the battle
We lock horn that is realizable
Our visions abound- aren’t rattle  
They are palatable and charitable.
