favor it outstripping most topical issues
did you think for a second he still had it in him
were you carried away on the still running current
Could the dream begin wavering before evaporation
was that merely an overlaid fading apparition
had they really controlled our lives by attrition
does the fossil fuel industry fart in the wind
Focus on what's before us before the distraction
becomes magnified leading to the subtraction
of all that's important in most of our lives
peace on earth for our children and wives
Go ahead and picture a river of time
in a valley then try to see clearer
the terrain through clouds thinning
and the sheen of just winning
To understand one's self
first one must understand others
because when we look through someone
else's eyes we begin to see the whole picture
