pitch perfect in tone, as ever Jerry
a beautiful dedication, acknowledging
that quintessential aspect
of unremarkable, in our everyday lives
we seldom
take the time to highlight and appreciate..
thanks for sharing dear poet

\'In this land to the bone
There are two kinds of folks
Quality ones who count and
Trashy ones who don’t.\'
and Yet: you have three doorways
in that image, Jerry
how convoluted, our sense of Truth
manifests itself
when we conveniently, curate
our corrupted
reality of heinous: righteousness..!
(know, that when we remember and celebrate
humanity\'s achievements, we are cementing our worth
but, when we remember and mourn
humanity\'s tragedies: we offer a path for our growth...!)
thank you, dear Poet
for being that insightful and empathetic, Human
we all need to know, still exists - to showcase
a version of that better Person
we\'re all striving: to become...
that\'s what your simple write, represents Jerry
at least, to me
that\'s the power for good we All, possess!!!
Tulsa - Race massacre, 101 years old today...
( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulsa_race_massacre )
knowledge is Power, choosing to share
is choosing to Keep our \'humanity\': alive
and staving-off, that \'inhumanity\'
threatening to drown us all
in hate fuelled: inhumane monstrosity...

There is a tale of a large banquet being prepared and one of the people asked the man in charge of setting up the table which people should go with who around the table and the reply was:

\"Those people who matter don\'t care; those people who care don\'t matter\"
