Poem: Choose

I envision so much that I could learn

but without drive, ideas burn

Not confident that I'll get my turn

Never really had a proper chance to earn

I yearn to learn to turn this thing around

I yearn to learn to earn, it burns to the ground

For years now I have tried to focus every day

In foundations made of sand, the sea washes progress away

It's time to play to change the game

The range can't stay the same

I know they say it's strange that way

but they all hate weekdays

This state, I say this way's deranged

They wait for better days

Again, their cash just slips away

They don't use their change for Change

There's a reason it has that name

A clue staring in your face

You don't have to stay the same

Comfort Zones become Disgrace

But we can choose another gate

The only way to renew fate

Why just kill your time and wait

Invent your options, don't wait too late

Can't be letting your time slide away

Can't be giving your whole life away

Reflect what I'm about to say

Why would you throw your life away?

Children of earth facing a darker day

The fuel of fools who now indoctrinate

Groomers are crying "Don't discriminate"

The naive fight for love and stir up hate

The lower classes drown and suffocate

The water rises as prices inflate

Illegal fungi might just motivate

Ain't no understanding like a mystical embrace

I feel the water swimming round my waist

It feels like it's getting really late

Integrate life's lessons, they're not a waste

An abundance of these learnings change your fate
