We See The Good


        Walking along the street
What do you think when you meet
A person? Do you think of the good
like you should or do you shrink uncertain?
And go with what you’re shown
In a culture violent
With guns, how do you not get shot
Or maimed?
By the man strange without a name
The answer is to not have fear
Or adhere to thoughts of misfortune
Loosen your grip on the ship with a list
And look into the eyes more in tune
And surprisingly the risk is as strange
as the smile as reality
Changes to bliss and a style
You see in the eyes like the skies
Numbering the stars
The good outnumber the ones who are
With bad intent as you repent thinking
From a sinking ship linking this with a list and resist
Shrinking to float and insist the risk is remote
As a boat of lies in the way you see the world
Not on the make but perceiving you receive
this believing by mistake not on the ocean
with a notion of sharks as your emotions are in motion
with the fish who are really billions of good like the stars
Where some may fall but when most have hearts
Giving you living with forgiving your mind
To see not black with attack but color with a kind
Of light that outshines the darkness as the day
Becomes the eyes of blue
Construed as a way the danger of the stranger
Is not cold but hot
Making your mind not old in thought
As you find every passing notion one very happy
And as vast as the ocean
Sailing on the mast like a castaway of emotion
At last flip the ship and tip the coin
To keep the ship afloat to join a courage to encourage
And discourage the blind blue eyes and skies
To always find your wayward ship equipped to float
Never to list as your ship or boat
