Look At This Light
LOOK AT THIS LIGHT by: Judy Chellah
Light is an electromagnetic radiation within a certain portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
In other words
Light is a kind of energy that brings light into a dark arena
Light helps us see not only a location
But it can open our eyes to a bigger legislation
When we think of light, we think of the sense of sight
But we might not think that people can be light
Right now our world is dark
Filled with hatred and jealousy
Some disembark
They say “I don’t want to be part of this conversation”
“All this politic talk can cause isolation”
The news talks about the bad things that happen in our society
Rather than finding a solution to help the variety
Some can’t even speak about it because we’re scared of hateful remarks
We are cautious about our lives and busy respecting the oligarch
While most kids are learning the golden rule and breaking it
WE are learning what to do when we get pulled over and taking the hit
Everyone says we need change
But is it change for this country or a race rearrange?
You can't take this country “back” to how it was before
Take the “U” out of united because we have doomed our states and done way more
American is the land of the free that came to this country seeking a new start in a land that was already occupied
But now when other races come to do the same
You are suddenly mortified
Plain isn’t always good
I get so scared that one day this world is going to be filled with so much hate, that we forget what UNITY looks like and what LOVE feels like OH MY GOD please help us!
Before we make a mistake that we all might regret and fills us with disgust, YOU become the light that everyone can trust and change us.
