This Moment In Time...

This moment in time
lies within our grasp,
demanding something better
laughing at the past.

The roadmap to the future
stands before our eyes,
waiting in the wings
the breath we have inside.

Empowering all the people
to benefit their lives,
challenging all those notions
built behind a lie.

Producing transformation
creating something new,
fueling innovation --
precision and speed.

Stepping up our game
shooting for the stars,
leaving what's behind
that fit our misled lives.

Prying our attention,
selling all the time,
masking their affection
always on the sly.

The stench of appeasement
no longer rules the day,
pretentious and deceptive
lacking any spine.

Playing with the truth
biding all their time
Living in a past --
sounding like a chime.

Looking to the future
a place we know inside.
Praying for salvation
for what we left behind.

Seducing our emotions
no longer fits the bill.
Our spirit is the answer,
the mind is the key.

These moments in time
don't always come your way.
But paying close attention
is sure to win the day.
