Updating My Man

This is the place of my birth  
I would like to stay  
but there are wrinkles to be dealt with
Hopefully not terminal
 
Much bracketed by violence  
The politics, the sports, video game
While the human body is still closeted  
 
Mental health starting to lose the stigma  
But the zero sum game has got to go if not for the continuation of the nation then the fate of the planet  
 
We see the best and worst In our  organizations forget that they Ultimately reflect ourselves and dismiss our own responsibility

So keep moving for the stationary wheel goes nowhere
things are always in flux
time enough to rest later on
