Solidarity

Forging forward, the hope is determination;
Will and dedication – hope`s foundation.
Searching endlessly for some inspiring creation,
To give off a spark of art and beautification.

The aspiration, the dreams see and envision
Is: a procession of words which (with precision)
Evoke in another some sense of joyful respite –
A bit of light for another, lost, in the downtrodden night.

Hopes (through revisions, repetition, verse, and rhyme)
To create alluring and musical sights, for the deaf and blind.
Perhaps harmony and artistry, to free another soul in a bind;
Those individuals who also feel compressed by this time…

… This modern age, and city without pity.

The pressure of the negative gravity (everywhere) is weighing
Down on the shoulders (bearing down on the souls) of everyone – all
(And particularly those who do more than just live and conceal;
Those singular spirits who dream, sense, observe, act, and feel)
Numb bystanders (hope and) laugh as the dreamers stumble and fall,
Hateful judgments (and ridicule) their eyes are silently saying.

Our comfort = our love = our art, let our dreams stand forever together;
Artistic penguins, encircled in the breath of any frigid, doubting weather.

Still, pursuing those broken dreams…
Still, on wounded emotions, stitching seams…
Still, growing by any possible means…

It is by our own minds that we are enslaved,
And by the same conscious we are also saved.
Though (sometimes solitary) in the world’s creative captivity,
Together we are all connected and free, in our personal artistry.
