Politics

They talk about politics as if it were
 a football game or some kind of 
sporting event. However, making laws 
for people's lives should be done 
with better management.

We are talking about the rules of life and
 death; we are talking about money and 
human survival--food housing and jobs. 
It's not some kind of apple bob.

We are talking about the future of generations 
to come; we are talking about the presence of
 how things should be done; we are talking 
about tomorrow while living today; we are
 talking about how to find a better way.

No, the politics of the world is not a game;
 it's a war of good and evil with people to blame.
 It should be considered in a very serious vein. 

The issues of tomorrow are the problems of today.
The whole point of living on Earth is to find the
right way.  Politics is how these thing are done; 
it should be done with love, money, and fun.

We all should want to love one another and 
to live in peace and harmony together. When
will we stop going after each other's throats
 before we all realize we're in one big boat?

A hole in a boat done by one can jeopardize us all 
politics done wrong today can lead us to that 
humongous fall. With all the communications and 
technology today, we can almost see tomorrow 
if we don't let hate, bigotry, and racism get in the
 way.
