State of Today
Wicked winds blow
As the earth shakes and trembles
Volcanoes glow
With dancing demonic angels
The ocean rises under the pressure of the moon
Whales beach themselves, welcoming death soon
Birds with flaws are our demise
The ones that walk and cannot fly
Sweet blooms on strawberry vines
Created in laboratories and tainted wines
Killer bees infiltrate from state to state
Swarming under Queen bee’s command
So full of hate!
The Amazon will find its end
Scientists received notice to pull back and resend
Families are left to break the law
Homes are foreclosed due to a flaw
Books are scrutinized and removed
Innocent minds corrupted and skewed
There are a few hidden from sight
Willing to go the extra mile
Fight the good fight
When tyranny presses an anxious mind
Negotiation is dead by design
The Garden of Eden is a beautiful death
What's the point if no one’s left?

Don't let it overwhelm you. It ain't worth the upset stomach.
Find the joy, embrace it mentally. No one can take that away from you.
The big picture looks bleak. But, it's the individual moments that keep us going.
(I went and met a bunch of puppies today. I didn't get one, but we cheered each other up each time for a few minutes!)

Brilliantly penned, Fia. Into the list it belongs. Flawlessly executed, my friend. I loved the lines above. Great read. Appreciate you.

Hello Fia,
This is a fine piece and the message is felt. I like the mentioned messages. We are the ones left Fia and I think that it can be of importance to set an intention. You can choose how you want to show up in the world. I think it does matter what you send out into the world, or out into your world, I much enjoyed this piece, love and blessings,
Rianne

Thank you Rianne. You are right that it matters what is sent out into the world. Words and actions should have an intention behind it to help

Speechless... what a profound piece this is, those two lines are simply stunning.
...I wish I had more words, but I don't - I'm really a bit speechless...

Keeping on top of it without letting it get on top of you is so hard right now. The hits come so freaking fast we hardly have time to process one thing when the next hits. Articulating it is the best we can do sometimes. You did that well here, Fia
