Bad News, Good News


The bad news is that
I create what I see in others.

If I'm lazy, I'll see laziness.
If I'm dangerous, I'll see danger.
If I'm greedy, I'll see greed.

The good news is that
I create what I see in others.

If I'm patient, I'll see patience.
If I'm kind, I'll see kindness.
If I'm hopeful, I'll see hope.

    What happens when they
    Walk into a darkened room.
    Flip a switch, and no
    Lights come on, no stocks rise, no
    Businesses hire new workers?

    They will get in line
    For food stamps, for medical
    Care, for church sermons
    About aborting children
    Of illegal immigrants.

    They need their sugar,
    Their energy drinks, their bank
    Accounts to keep them
    The richest nation on earth,
    Polling how mood swings switch sides.
