Poetic Thoughts To Think About
For the entire world it’s the start to the work week
In America today silent moments no one speaks
For all the battles that are done
We here ponder on Monday who really won
Is there a better way
For troops to get their say
A competitive mind
Does have the time
To figure it out
Without a shout
How to handle aggression
Brought on by depressions
And recessions
When money is there
People are happy and care
But if the account is bare
There is a feeling defined as scared
This brings tension
Anger hatred comes to attention
Violent acts play their part
Contributing to war time start
How do we solve the problem?
Diagnosed as “I got them”
An artist puts a message in a published book
Fed to the reader after the hook
Digesting it like a dish created by the cook
Athletes perform during a game
Allowing the rival communities different and same
Fight things out honoring a mascots name
Only a score to blame
Finally there is the money person
Making their assertion
Donating to the creative outlets in need
Financed after his team takes the lead
All these events result not in death
Only in peaceful conversation from one’s breath
A solution is found without dying
No need for family graveside crying
Advice words to an advisor
When putting up with diplomatic liars
Stay cool
And let honesty be used as a tool
Destructive confrontations are for the fool
And it’s true reality is very cruel
