#OctPoWriMo 2018 Day 19–I Don’t Want Much
I Don’t Want Much
Remember me with love and laughter
and that will be enough hereafter
I hope my poems and prose live on
though I suppose it won’t matter to me when I’m gone
May descendents and students continue my fights
for compassion and justice and civil rights
and for all to have water, food, shelter and health
an end to greed and ridiculous wealth
May the young generations continue their stand
to save our planet, the oceans and land
to use clean resources for energy need
stop corporate welfare, corporate greed
May our country be blessed with young ethical leaders
And ditch all the current old crass bottom feeders
I guess what I’m really rooting for
Is an end to suffering, privilege, and war
I want so much it makes me dizzy
Kids, here’s the baton, you better get busy
Amazing, especially the day after the election and the firing of Sessions. We all better get busy.
Yep. Thanks
