Our Current World

As I can foresee the end of my life,

Who would think that I feel lucky!

Reading as I do, 

Day in and day out

The world’s problems,

Once thought as foreign,

Now seem to be surfacing here


Even within the mystery of life,

So many nations have been destroyed,

Watching one after another eating their own,

Hoping that they would wake up 

And live with one another in peace.


But now I see our nation joining.  

The nightmare of other nations,

Seemingly creeping into dichotomies

That can only result in the breakdown

Of the Constitution that has cemented us.


I can only hope that we, the People,

Will look back with gratitude to our ancestors

And push onward to restore the narrative 

That We, the People, have so much to treasure

And cannot bear to let it be destroyed.
