Pearlescent Poems # 22: If It Seems Stressed (Original Poem)

We wake up every morning not knowing the many outcomes
Bad things will happen regardless, regardless of the How come?

Pondering possibilities, choices that we have made
While others sit back in mansions and talk about how they have maids

Some have everything they've ever wanted yet hunger more for what's displayed
Whether they'll go to that opera show or change their mind and go to this play

Whether they will buy another property or invest more money into this place
While some who struggle, begin to huddle when their alone and feel displaced

I see bodies upon the streets and rugged stories to my dismay
Some March weakly/weekly until June, when food was supposed to come this May

But those who can help immensely, see themselves as too regal
While the lowest of all the beggars, think of dark places they would never re-go

Some of the poorest souls are the kindest and most greatful
And some of the most privileged are the most selfish and blind like a great fool

When you see an opportunity or situation that seems stressed
Patch one's problems with pure love threading bridges like a seamstress
