i think in this world
in this country
we have our priorities all messed up
the mass media projects an image
and we blindly follow
the likeness we are told we should become
we consume
we don't even think
what impact could this have on my body?
on this planet?
on others?
our home is slowly dying
and we're the ones pushing it further
not thinking about the consequences ahead
but, people are slowly waking up
they are starting to see the truth and realize what must be done
there is a small glimmer of hope on the horizon
and we, as a human race, should chase after it
this shouldn't have to be a guilt game
but rather a notion of love
in our everyday choices
money means power
and power lands in the wrong hands
greedy, idiotic hands that only care about one thing
but let's join hands and show them what compassion looks like
let's get our priorities straight
and care for ourselves, others, and this beautiful planet that we call our home
