Assurgent Buds


With current trends full of twisted mistrust
In a land I feel to be so wrong and unjust,
Full of vacuous politicians that do not hear
Spreading division bathed and laced with fear,
Duplicitous in nature. totally out of touch
Criticise all, make themselves beyond reproach,
Their bonds of light and trust nowhere to be seen
They don't seem to listen, making people scream
Beyond their dark reflections of ugliness
I try to ignore the continuing insidiousness, 
Being woke in thought without callousness
Do not abandon myself to hopelessness,
Will not be controlled by powers untender
Inner defences fight back, refuse to surrender,
Among the enshrouding blackness, break free
Follow spirits of kindness and glimmering empathy,
Breathing with defiance, moving gigantically 
Under glowing sun. try to cancel negativity,
I hear the loud voices of strength and solidarity
Forces of good, spinning forth.that don't irritate me,
Angry voices of needed resistance and positivity
Ambassadors of change, forces of necessity,
Like wild red roses tired of keeping their distance
Hope spreaders, that manipulators can't extinguish.
