LIVING THE DREAM

Photo by Porapak Apichodilok from Pexels

Turned on the morning news
And overnight
Children
Have only gone and
Let all the animals out of their traps and cages
Inspired gangs to throw their knives into the fire
Sown woodlands to heal frack crack and landfill
No-one can pick a side now for standing as one.
Threatened ones dance in diversity out of danger
Cures and care are now funded by giving a damn
Trolls set up helplines for those they have bullied and beaten
Peace reigns with volume and vilify put on mute
Foodbanks just folk tunes hummed by long remembrance
Plastic just melting as healthy as foam on the seas
Then we
Woke up.
To ourselves.
Didn’t we?
