Tower: Inverted

Our nerves are shot & still, we try.
Living under fire to get by.

Persevere thru prosecution.
Out is thru this revolution.

One eye skyward & one ahead.
This constant state of war & dread.

Conflicted, we keep trucking on.
When backs touch walls we find our brawn.

The state of man has always been…
Violence, conflict & basest sin.

Angry boys resenting mother.
Ugly shown to every other.

Some rise above with grit & will.
Some coast right thru by being still.

Wealth parties as their ivory leans.
Soon, it will rain down all their means.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
