Changes Made

 

Just you wait, things will go right


again, and likewise over time, things


will most assuredly go wrong.



If you should live through this,


things could have been better,


and the worst could have been


a whole lot worse.



Things never stay right all the


way, and the wrong too will


never stay, until the end that is.



Take Auschwitz, Hiroshima


and 9-11 for instance. Think


of systemic racism and social


injustice. Only the survivors


have a chance at change


and a better way.



Ah, but then wait for it—


inevitably, either way,


for better or for worse,


the pendulum swings,


things are bound to change.



It could have been you who


had something to say.
