There Is No Such Power
there is no such power
that will exist
for a lifetime
there is none of that
kind
for everything is just like
the wind
it comes and if it is so strong
and powerful
that some trees are carried
away
like the hurricane scare
yet it will just be
like everything else so
temporary
it goes away
and what remains are us
still strong
with our feet rooted to
the grounds
of our own
integrity and morality
we are strong
because our hands are clean
because our hearts are pure
because we are the
the well shaped stones
and not the
corrugated grafts
of the
corrupted culture
