Do we want to help?
Should we want to and
Be willing to give of ourselves
For the sake of others?  
There are needs 
Beyond our knowing and
Comprehension.  We waste
Time and energy.  Basically
We are not consistent in
Preparing for what we must do
We have excuses to offer
We must meditate and rededicate
Or we will never find the peace
We are searching for
Failure to act leaves us empty
And often depressed.  Some
Simple changes will reverse this.  Amen

Don’t make that turn
To belittle your brother
You’re in this together
Forever and ever
So easy to blame
When things don’t go right
Sometimes obnoxious 
Causing a fight

But the battle ends
With a win or loss
As all games do, and
There is always a cost
Structure was broken
Must be rebuilt
Involve everyone
Forget about guilt

Life is a story
Often it’s savage
Sometimes with glory
Mostly just average
There are winners and losers
Better to honor the game
Instill the discipline 
A better way to fame

Hold your head high
Do the best you can
Appreciate magnificence
Be your own fan
