Where does it come from?
What?
Delusive rationality!
Are we out of mind?
Senses drained and dried?
No!
What do you capitalized on?
Neutral ambition?
Stop writhing in pain
It halts not the rod
Good ambition...lofty ideas

Budding pretty flowers 
Within the blossoming of youth
Of tender sensitive age

Those everlasting enjoys, Wrapped in a loving mist

laughing all with joys, Running to be a specialist
Unaware of the future ploys, of those so called sophist

The revolutionary, so brave and true,
courage and strength, misconstrued 
Pride, hope, their dreams are for us, 
It's time we honor them, for their greatness and trust

Annie Willow entered my office,
It surprised all of us.

At first glance,
You might think she had no chance.

I inquired to what she would bring,
Something to add, something with zing.

We need a change
Everybody needs a change
Authority means extra responsibility
Not selfishness and greediness



Ignorant and corrupt leadership
Like a band of evil soldiers in a warship
