Philisophical Torment

The media writes chaos into our lives -

Each story
Every voice
reaches out to the weak and torments them.

Many can see a light through their negative portrayals
of the world;

and as the bloodshed and horror tear across tv screens and
newspaper headings,

those with hopeful hearts and peaceful spirits see
beauty and love
underlying the illusion.

Pray for humanity -
Pray for love -

For darkness is merely an error
waiting to be enveloped by light....

Help Her!

She wraps her words around the silence,
hoping they might understand.

A new culture strips her of confidence.

She uses her children to shield her from
participation,

yet she wants so much to learn.

She is a refugee,
we must help her.

She is our hope for the future,
We must teach her.

She gives America
a reason to succeed;

We MUST,

or she will be forced back to War,
where learning is nearly a crime.
