The muse is here and now with me and enters my thoughts frequently niw, I just have to pause and focus a d a thought hits me quick, then a line follows, perhaps two or three before I pause once more
i love my life, i feel special, somehow selected /
By it lrotected, call it the luck of the Irish yeah/
And Saint Patrick's Day is so close now, i have my /
Shiny plastjc deep Cadmium green chain w/ shamrock!
It, too brings me luck, moreso warmth, a broad smile /
That i often feel though might nit always wear for you/
It is there, i know, it lights me up, fires my guts/
hugs my heart, uplifts my thoughts and clears my mind /
i am blessed, i am employed by my environment and all /
Those of us that need a voice to ring, to jar, to rattle/
You cannot get away with murder, the crippling of others/
The intentional disregard for human life other than yours /
Gou are not a saint because you make more money,muse people's /
0 Kindness and weaknesses to rob them blind without a care, a /
Rearward looking back on your selfish eletist fast track /
Grow a heart, grow a soul, grow a conscience, ask earn my -/
Resoect for we are equal, we celebrate women this month /
We always should,mminorities and anyone else than white peops /
We are all equal and deserve to be treated fairly, oais equally, /
I see how i have been blind so long to so many plights of ithers /
o more! i will fight for equality fir all, i will use myself /
A 67 year old mature white man that can set a example both for/
Myself and others because both daily and nightly I must check /
Myself, my thoughts, my actions, reactions, behavior, my judge= /
me tsbrealizing that i , too, like all of us fall into routine, /
So much bad wrong unjust unkind selfish behavior, tjoughts and /
i realize that i am still, have been so often bith lazyna d yeah/
Selfish! i cannot live this way anymore, i must be on alert, on /
Vigil, on guard, i must do what is right to save myself, help /
Others and do everything in my piwer to protect our world so /
We may all not be afraid that we might die that day as we wake /
Up at the hand of another white man that thinks, fervently believes /
That he is better than another, that he is the chisen one,mthat he/
Has every right to put down others and make their lives living hells/
No, this must change, we must make room for everyone, it is what i /
will focus on for the rest of my life, to be kind, help another.
