Old Popes, Old Presidents, old God - May 22, 2025

it makes sense that wisdom

comes with age

 

forward vision should get better

with a lifetime, or eons, of living

 

but the inhabitants of earth

are in a lot of pain

as the planet slowly dies

 

seems to me, the world needs

a unified push to correct the

mistakes of these single beings

 

in all fairness to the Great

Giftgiver, I guess He can’t be

responsible for what’s been given

 

in fact, He did give us the tools

to fix everything

 

if only we could all agree

to take our over-sized

imagination

 

and dip it in love
