SEEDS OF ALTRUISM

Folder: 
JOURNAL #27

hedonists

with your loud though vacant concerns

spend your cynical pleasure

on a better cause

upon the fictional heels of Robin Hood

procure a little empowerment for the

unjustly impoverished

reek a little order in havoc's thick

slip your self assured shawl of promise

across those sharing only

shoulders of despair

as God uses even the hands of the shallow

and the idle

to help guide the guide less

love the loveless

and inspire the before uninspired

to believe

change

and there for

better those merely existing

rather than truly living

so to ascend

themselves

unto the thrown

of their very own

potential

that of divine selflessness

with the right spirit

one small ripple effect

can create a hurricane

of unfathomable human

compassion

in much less elaborate terms

one spontaneous hug

makes way

for many future embraces.........
