The philosophy on paper works, <br />But the intimacy of it is missing. <br />The views projected, <br />Are not the ones reflected. <br />And those rejected... <br />Are spurned by a mongrelness. <br /> <br />A blended mixture, <br />With wishes to be pure. <br />A way of life... <br />Endured but not right, <br />Enforced yet divorced from a naturalness... <br />Fights to survive, <br />And tries to hide internal divisions inside! <br /> <br />Criticized and yet... <br />No one accepts what is correct! <br /> <br />The philosophy on paper works, <br />But the intimacy of it is missing. <br />The views projected, <br />Are not the ones reflected. <br />And those rejected... <br />Are spurned by a mongrelness. <br /> <br />And what is marketed as the best, <br />Cracks and crumbles from insecure unrest! <br />Observed in its isolation... <br />By those around the World! <br /> <br />A blended mixture, <br />With wishes to be pure. <br />A way of life... <br />Endured but not right, <br />Enforced yet divorced from a naturalness... <br />Fights to survive, <br />And tries to hide internal divisions inside! <br />And this isolation... <br />Is observed, <br />Around the World! <br />Observed, <br />Is a way of life disturbed!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
