Right ♥ Now
Seems this is going to be a day where my words refuse to flow
& I’m thinking,
ya know,
go back to bed and give inspiration a break.
seriously
It’s not worth forcing an energy that is just. not. there.
! ! or ! !
I can write, see what appears, hit delete at any moment
& no one will know, but me
YaY
& there’s that tune.
C’mon people now
Smile on each other
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
& ya know when a song enters your brainwaves, hunkers in
and hits replay again and again
and again … ? …
yeah-huh
that’s what’s going on with mine these days
ever since the musical soul I call, friend, gifted Belinda Carlisle‘s rendition of The Youngblood‘s classic.
& weeeee
I don’t mind at allllllll.
Try to love one another right now.
! okeedokee !
Sounds pretty darn easy, if you ask me
& yet, here we insist,
repeating the same, old, tired, sentences as hatefulness continues to thrive throughout this land we love.
& dang
I am so, so tired of ugliness
seems no matter what words I conjure up to counter the venom,
and no matter how many times I plead it’s easy if you try.
I have to,
you have to,
WE have to TRY.
try harder, try better.
try today and tomorrow and all the tomorrows that follow.
try until our very last breath.
try always and always
because if I try and you try and she tries and he tries ….
Oh no, Hate.
No. No. NO.
I cannot, I will not hit delete.
Not today.
Not. Ever.
I will continue to TRY.
So, please.
PLEASE.
C’mon people now
Smile on each other.
Right ♥ now.
🙂
