They call me radical, but my focus is actual,
intentions are not casual, with purposes practical,
sharpened on the factual, because results are tangible,
slacking suggests a gamble, when the role is survival,
sourcing for sustainable, vibing with the viable,
reaching for reliable, connecting with the capable,
because failure is unacceptable, the world is fragile,
people are not disposable, value is broader than financial,
recognizing ripples of capital, when patterns are historical,
calculations may be technical, but the strain is palpable,
nature may be malleable, yet our capacity isn’t as flexible,
summon our society global, tune in with eco-systems local,
group kinetics are shapable, when relations are respectable,
humor is essential, because we are all fatally fallible,
better not to be gullible, when the truth is treated so tensile,
views lost in divisions political, smokescreens theatrical.
I look at policies communal, boosting standards social,
current dynamics are direful, a populous suffering painful,
the imbalance is hierarchal, established by the aristocratical,
endowed with control maniacal, layered divinely subliminal,
subjected with a mentality colonial, supremacy extractable,
labor degraded generational, barely with pay menial,
honoring enrichments immoral, stilted with structure unstable,
growth projected economical, yet the gains are not universal,
the cost is undeniable, but the status quo is unshakable,
insulation unbreakable…
