How We Can Play A Role
Bursting judgments, thick and clouding
intentions, accomplished into crowding
treating and reading makes mostly sense
true ideals, replacing thinking suspense
judgments responsibilities converted
developments someone hopefully deserted
our system indecision’s know
artistic endeavors with powerful flow
true ideals, that willfully must grow
humanity infiltrating control
converting abandonment, into a role
homelessness people, walking society stroll
visiting shelters with cheers
agreed finding, earlier planned years
temporary roof and floor support
we must not come up short
wide enough standard looks
collaborations in writing their books
amazing coincidental kindly acts
turning broken lives around, attracts
