Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!

"conditions"


three sides to every side
a story to be told
but who's listening
outside the circle
shaping, molding
to fit ones needs
fire spit
from all directions
no change in situation
nuclear meltdown
get rid of the waste
uninsured
none wanting to walk away empty
as the history
repeats itself
what's new but the day
and those stay the same
sunday through saturday
grass ain't always greener
depends on the caretaker
determines the growth
pay attention to each season
as conditions change
for no thing stays the same
still three sides
past, present, future
much too late
to stop the hand of time
but new can maintain
when preparations
are made to remain
