No more safety,
breathing toxicity,
don't be hasty,
to live/love the city,
surround
yourself
with people
not relics,
surround
your
friends
with caring,
not social
media
or sharing,
stop liking
start loving,
we may not
be in a war
zone or may
be you need
to open your
eyes, depends
what you
recognize
as a casualty.

Too much rage,
that ain't sage,
too much hate,
won't dissipate,
too much crime,
happens all the time,
               all the time,
use your
arms to surround
a friend with hugs,
adios to the thugs,
say no to the d   s
not preaching
not teaching
just
reaching out
to all that is
human.
