Left And Right

the division is palpable
a great chasm where all voices are lost
information doesn’t help
when it’s lopsided, false or biased
adding strong emotions
only makes it worse
facts just don’t get in

how do we tear down the walls
constructed by those
who want us to languish just enough
to keep us productive for their well-being
how do we rise above
the mis- and dis-information
created to keep us at bay

how do we finally
once and for all
come together
and stop being used
by those who choose
to determine our worth
and the harmony we seek

  3. “Divide and Conquer ” although attributed to Julias Ceasar, it is probably history’s most commonly used tactic of war. We are pawns in a war being waged against us by our government, and until everyone realizes that- reunification is not even on the table. IMHO
    Heart wrenching piece.
