Belief in the beauty of unrequited love blooming
No relief as they replay the sounds of war looming
A chief at the mane of the horse he is grooming
A thief that refrains from the loot he is consuming
A monument erected to a colonialist tyrant
The consequence faced as a peaceful rally turns violent
Consciousness debased as a cult leader refuses to be silent
Promises embraced as one attunes to their new environment
Warships aligned in the South-China Sea
Mozart’s minuet played in the key of C
A moment of regret as he makes the choice to be free
The discriminatory tone set by those who look down on refugees
Wildfires consume Hawaii as history burns to the ground
Political liars presume the narrative as we try to rise above their sound
The deciders of the prerogative conspire to undermine the profound
As if mathematicians can come together to redefine the shape that’s round
Progressive environmentalists determined to save the earth
Impressive sentimentalists giving intellectualism a wide girth
Regressive evangelists incorrectly assessing what everything is worth
Aggressive conversationalists debating the existance of the virgin birth
Postulations on Socrates and his theories on thought to expand
Liberations from Dictatorial juries that allow the oppressed to take a stand
Invitations to express Indigenous fury as they fight to reclaim their land
Visitations from the ghost of Madam Curie as the atom splits in my hand
The illumination of an oak tree through the fullness of moonlight
The insubordination of those who see the need to fight for what is right
The culmination of the inspired artist painting through the night
The propagation of the sunflower seed whose brightness invirogates the sight
Stark recollections from a camp in World War Two
Barking rejections as you assert what it means to be you
Sky-larking infections of the overpriveledged wealthy few
Embarking on the elections of a leader with pure integrity supremely overdue
Eloquent referrals of brilliant discourse expressing refine
Subsequent deferrals of remorse regressing over time
Monument paternal guidance gives recourse for children to resign
Consequence of external concourse that forced atoms to realign
Sadness expressed from beneath the details of his soul
Madness regressed asyouthful natures evolve into the old
The bad sets of inquests into the man whose values cannot be sold
Gladness at the behest of alchemists turning questions into gold
