The situation is too critical
for people to mess around
Hatred, schism, horrendous assassinations
of innocents, threat of full-scale war breaking out
all over the globe
extreme poverty, often hidden in the USA
too critical for people to get lost
to hide mental illness and not get help
too critical for people to get lost
in the pursuit of riches
too critical to get lost
in self-rightousness
too critical to get lost
in unforgiveness
too critical
to shut people out
or hem them in
We must think beyond
our family, our neighborhood
our town, or state
our country, our planet
We must seek mindfulness
consider the fate
of the universe itself
