Indecisive
Probably be overwhelmed
If I could change the world.
It’s like receiving a sudden reward for breathing,
Or something more absurd.
What did I do to deserve this?
That’s not the point.
I would be excited to change things,
As eager as an exclamation point.
I would mitigate the pain
From a traumatic stress syndrome
And replace it with only happy thoughts
Those that I condone.
I would spread tolerance
Because it is unknown to some
That a world without hate
Is something not to abstain from.
A world without hunger
May sound cliché
But some don’t have enough apples
To keep the doctor away.
There are many other things
I’d like to make better.
I wish everything would turn up
And there was no major problem I didn’t remember.
