Twenty-Twenty

Miracle man
As I sit contemplating this years ending
I wonder if it quietly fades as a summer sunset,
or gives way, boisterously, to the New Year.
Will Twenty-Twenty bring more of the same
or will we see meaningful change?
The world is embroiled in political unrest,
and political factions snip and bite each other as ravenous wolves.
The media is all to willing to help man write his own obit.
We’re so polarized that we’re destroying ourselves and any other,
who disagrees with with words, drugs, guns.
Attitudes are sour and morals are as putrescent meat.
Will this new year see us vote in more sinful things
under the guise of benefiting our children and schools?
Unless hearts change I fear more of the same, or worse.
Only God knows
Happy New Year
