America is a melting *** indeed
A mixture of anger, anxiety, sadness, death, vulnerability
A failing government suddenly granting human rights and needs

What will become of thee?
A prayer for a silver lining
A change, maybe something free

Universal health care
Cancellation of student loans
Essentials workers earning more than fifteen?

What will it be?

As the Earth resets itself
I'm forced to face reality
To read a book
Learn to listen
Rest for 7-8 hours
Exercise
Create art
Renew my mindset
Meditate and Pray on Jesus's words
Heal
Face my monsters
Greet my angels
Sing a song

Unbeknown to me
I've been in a battle of what my new reality should be
I will constantly choose to live by faith until I'm free

It's not easy and I don't proclaim it to be
Take each day responsibly
You have a choice and voice that can move mountains
Circumstances do not determine your joy

We are witnessing the good the government can do for the people
Do not be silent
Do not hold on to seething anger

Speak up, make phone calls
Vote
Choose life
We deserve better

Change starts with you
Then maybe America can truly be great
Disagreements, dislikes and etc are inevitable
However, creating a solution is for what is right is attainable
Maybe humanity for all people will embody empathy
This isn't a poem, just an expression of anger, anxiety, and feelings of hope.
