Don't hope. You'd only be wasting your time. Women get raped.
Black men get murdered by cops, and bombs blow up
Shiites at worship. All of the taxes you pay go to guns which
Are turned, without fail, on the least deserving. No one wants
Peace. Everyone demands more. That is just how our species
And all others are. Withdraw if you can. That's more helpful
Than hoping. You can come here. The tree still has cherries.
The blueberry bushes are heavy with fruit. The pool water's warm,
And the foliage walls off the rest of a world which you can't make
Better. Why bother to try? Instead, you should hide here with me.
