Hopes and Prospects (poem)

For every useless division that we create

There’s a million ways to appreciate

This life that we share is one and the same

So there’s no reason to shame and blame

Learn from the past, don’t let it haunt you

You hide inside when the others taunt you

They step on you like a boot in the earth

But this is true, you are prudent in worth

If our self-worship were put on hold

We may see a change that broke the mold

We might see the one sure vision of truth

If we cast out all that makes us aloof

We persist with our relative talents

Knowing life exists as a delicate balance
