Give Us More Money
Messages paid for Never ending, Scolding us Don’t you want to help? Claiming we can save them all, If only we give our pennies to them, I say this to all the youth You need to know the truth, They’ll never stop the rich From keeping everyone else poor, They’ll never stop the government From causing prices to rise, They’ll never stop the poor From gaming the system, So what do they do With all our pennies? They protect the status quo, Taking a salary as they do so Helped by volunteers Who believe what they do They just want to help I know it’s true, But time has gone by And nothing has changed, Those who can truly help Are often called deranged, Their ideas are shut down And we are all told The only thing that can help Is the solution of old, Give us more money.

Mental Journey
I am on a journey of the mind. Contemplating the universe on every scale, and doing a complete introspective exploration. I may never be a literary academic, but I share my humble thoughts in hope that they may inspire others.
