Twenty-Twenty Two

Awaken
                                        The morning hastens
                                             Casting light
                                            Shadows rise
                                    Exposing the hidden truths
                                         Let justice be done

Hi Joe, all we can do is continue to reach out and try to enlighten people to the criminal acts our leaders are committing on us, the people. Thanks for stopping by to comment. I am going to post another piece about our (US) president tomorrow.....I can't help myself; I am filled with a lot of anger that our leader is a buffoon. :)Paulette
