COMPLETE TEXT: DIRE WARNING ©2020
"Dire Warning"Take two…
And call me in the morning –
Not a prescription,
but a dire warning.
The violence in our land
remains endlessly increasing –
As the vile of our hatred
continues inexhaustibly unceasing.
While we focus our attention
on the things we can’t control –
We are blind to the corruption and corrosion,
in our culture and our soul.
Divided we fall.
United we stand.
Is it the gun?
Or, is it the hand?
Will we choose to hate each other?
Or band together as sisters and brothers?
Shall we give up all that we have struggled for?
And trade peace and prosperity
for a new civil war?
Make no mistake;
Try to clearly understand –
If we break apart as a nation…
There will be guns in all of our hands.
