Why number 57?

Why number 57?

Why number 57?
 
 
Just write what I feel, it’s my way to release,
 
Our world, like paper, we rip and we crease.
 
Insanity now normal, controlled by false fears,
 
Ignoring the truth, all blind to the tears.
 
 
News is fabricated, the reports are extreme,
 
Scare mongering you, constant daily routine.
 
Trust should be earned, never given away,
 
We follow like sheep, just accept and obey.
 
 
The number is 57, the solution they gave,
 
Controlling our fate, the lives of the brave.
 
Putting a price on aid, must come at a cost,
 
Every second we waste, another soul lost.
 
 
Since the dawn of time, when we evolved,
 
Create all the problems, so easily solved.
 
Never at peace, only profit with war,
 
A future extinction, just like dinosaur.
 
 
I hate feeling this way; I want us to live,
 
Our time here is short; it’s better to give.
 
Join me now; let love be our guide,
 
Words have the power, to go worldwide.

Hey GRANT!!... so good to see you on the pages..... This subject matter is so dear to so many I have encountered...... there seems to be a worldwide movement of those who would NOT have happen what 'supposedly' happened to the dinosaurs...(check out the number 11 movement as well).....I am SO enthralled when I read an amazing, and far ahead of its time, write like this one..... that I cannot help to make myself look like an ass with my joyousness overflowing like a child..... it will be people like yourself that rise to the top with your voices..... I think I will not be around to see it..... but writes like this give me hope for my sons and those I Love so dearly!!..... keep your ear to the ground , your eyes wide open, and your intellect outsmarting those that would do harm to this planet brother poet!!......PINNED for perfection!!.....LOVE and ROCKETS!!...T xo ?☀✴✳♥

Hi Tony. 
My love and respect to you, my like minded, talented friend from across the world. Though many miles divide us we share both a voice and soul. I think your comments are my favourite feedback I have received and possibly ever will receive. When I grow up I want to be just like you. Never change.

Hello Grant...

I read this a few times and I was talking to an older lady the other day...

We were talking about what it might be like 50 years from now...

She said she doesn't know and she said we can hope and pray it will be much better by then...

She said only when people will begin to really care then there's always hope...

Great write!

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...
