Things. Things are just everywhere. Not heart-felt feelings, just things. Got to buy this, got to buy that and pretty soon those “things” are off to a thrift store. Are you happy yet?

I had a little thought, it popped into my head
It wasn’t really anything, just something I had said
I said it wasn’t kind, I said it wasn’t true
I began to think, it’s neither me nor you

Just when I felt release, escape from pending dread
Reality again became the spot inside my head
You don’t know for sure, what really is the truth
The man wearing green is hiding in the booth

That’s when I decided, to my own self be true
I cannot begin to undo what others put us through
For never in our lifetime, have we felt the need to try
To determine who the liar is, as they continue to decry

There has to be some good, in learning to discern
That which is affecting us, that is our main concern
The latest news came out, it gave horrific facts
There really are evil people, hiding in their tracks

It’s hard for me to understand those incapable of love
They must not have received the gift, the gift from heaven above
It’s an elite sense of authority, they think they are better than you
Quite unable to feel the heart, the heart that is so true

Fight with me, fight with you, what a waste of time
I have an idea, I speak the thought, then I hear a chime
The chime is the reminder, that time is running short
If we intend to beat this, let’s turn it into sport

See if you can discern who really tells the truth
Look past your previous ego, become a searching sleuth
Look for documentation backed up by facts in print
Journalists have become storytellers, that is one big hint

When we reach the finish line, only then will you know
Your heart will be racing, it’s time for them to go
We deserve peace on earth, we want peace for sure
Stop listening to lying jerks, your heart with facts assure
