It is this world. This human world.
A constant imperfection at best. All the while seemingly at a junction of sorts. As if it was ever a secret. A junction where media is law and where law is brittle. The regime? Imperfection at its worst. It’s a mixture of horrific thoughts and surreal actions by people at the top. But you also know that already. People who have no inkling of wisdom in their eyes. Who certainly have no compassion behind them. It is not the first time it has happened. The last century tells you all you need to know. And so do all the centuries of humanity prior. In these times we are in nothing short of a fiction. In the worst of ways. A new war of division is upon us with bigotry at the frontier. Yet any soul would be a scrooge to offer nothing more than the negatives.


I do truly believe one good thing…that if you read between the lines…you may find that this present world holds the best of ways too. One old way comes to mind. For all the division and bigotry, there is an immense union to thwart it. Those that hold sharper and broader minds. Minds that know that the good fight does not mean the absence of kindness and understanding. Just think of all the stories of old and the ones yet to be written. The ones of doom and gloom. Of dread and evil. Where there seems of no escape. Where there is a lack of air to breathe and where any sort of peace is simply one for the dreamers. Any sort of scraps are there for the capitalist schemers.
But this regime has cracks. Like most of them do. Where something simmers ever so subtly every so often. They are hidden deep in their crevices. Just waiting and waiting….for those walls keep shaking
until they are ready to spring to life.
For something ancient and undaunted has entered the fray. And its name?
Companionship I believe. For companions in times like these are an array of gold in the murkiest of waters. And what of a golden sunshine? One that caresses the arrows of fools. Rattling the being of the many bowmen to blindness? Arguably you are then the luckiest of all. For that is for the right companion. The sole comrade. So to my point. At long last. You must keep your companions close in these times. For at least you face these times alongside a friendly spirit. And better yet….suffer together. For that, those comrades are worth every penny. That is the real gold in the end. Like it always was and will be.

I was crying in bed
Only the moonlight entered the room
My cat kept looking at me
climbed onto the bed
and began to lick
my tears

When you are
feeling alone, and
when you have NO FRIENDS,
you want the
loneliness to subside, and
come to an end,
like some kind of companionship,
not knowing where to begin,
just yearning for attention,
as the aloneness sets in, but
don't feel down and out
just lift up that chin,
You are a Champion, and
YES!!!,
YOU CAN WIN!!
You are not alone when
you are in Solitude,
There's No issues, or no malice,
Just pure Gratitude!!!
So, Be Grateful that you are all alone,
there is nothing wrong,
with being on your own,
The friends that you have had
have gone astray,
A handful of friends, to me is okay,
Your days will be brighter, and
No Clouds of Gray!!!
