At first we were

Cast well adrift

But in that chaos

I feel a shift

Of people turning

And talk to resist

The want to live

Not just to exist

But how do you fix

That which is now broke

To wade on through

The corrupt and woke

Some middle ground

A balance we need

But not while we’re

At the whim of greed

And those who feel

We shouldn’t be free

They treat us like

We’re property

And that’s where we have a problem

Rhyme and Reason
