Long Unreasonably Poems

justice 

What does this vastly misunderstood word mean to you?

synergetic person,
integral narrative,

Each interdependent development
and apartheid decay,

non-autocratic,
more neuro-sensory automatic,
and inhales enlightening Ways

I came upon a man today
Not socially distant in any way,
But sad and staring off into the sky,
I looked straight into his tearing eye.
