You are working for applause not a cause. You are living to impress, not express. That almost never work out the way you want it to. You the type of person to do something good when someone is looking, but wouldn’t do a good thing when that someone looks away. So I am asking you to do something for me. I need you to do the right thing even when no one is looking. I need You to Work for a Cause, not Applause. Live to express, not to impress. You do that for me you’ll succeed in life.

so true
clean suite leaving
with dirty underwear thoughts
smiles hiding bleeding gums
so few, are as we thought
they would be, this is why
modernity's plastic aesthetic
has made a shambles
of our democracy
what to trust, when they're all
A.I. designed
to circumvent our danger signs...
(brilliant wisdom, thank you for sharing)
I read and try to heed, dear poet
