Poem: The Poo

Look here! Look there!
No this is important!
No thanks, I don't really care

What is relevant?What is true?
Who or what story is dominating you?

Observers keep the plot in play
As they silently watch on
But wish it would go away

Car-crash tv has become the norm
Many waiting for the next thunder storm

What if we can choose to unsubscribe
From repeats that only serve to divide

Dare we choose to live a life
Where it does not involve the trouble and strife?

For survival is what we've been accustomed to
But you and I know that it's all a bit poo

Did you know that this is really not your lot?
And that you can really change your ill fated plot?

The lines that write your hand of fate
Can be changed with choice and yes, without the click bait

So I heard there is a story that is to unfold
Of glory days that's full of gold

Golden moments where we all get to thrive
And it is up to us to keep that alive

There are many out there who already live this way
Showing that it IS possible to go beyond what other people say

You may have seen them passing by
With a lightness in smile that melts your 'end is nigh' 

Have you met those people that make you feel
That possibilities DO exist and that they are real!!

Did you sense the tingles and lightness in your being?
Well, I wonder how many more of those people you will be seeing?

For asking is part of what you are required to do
For a world you would like to see that's not just about the poo

Then choosing a choice you are inspired to take
With a dose of gratitude, and make sure it's not fake!

Acknowledge what is, and head up high
To a state of being where you feel you want to fly

For it is there you will rendezvous
With all you have been asking for without all the goo

​So find a moment to take this all in
Unless you all really enjoy being kicked in the proverbial shin
