RAW POEM NOVEMBER PAD CHAPBOOK CHALLENGE DAY TWELIVE FROM WRITER'S DIGEST...

BEEN THINKING ABOUT THOSE CRAZY RUSSIAN ROULETTE SIDE EFFECTS WITH THAT CRAZY EXPERIMENTAL USE SO CALLED VACCINE THAT IS DOING MORE HARM THAN GOOD. IT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME TO TAKE A DRASTIC CHANCE WITH YOUR LIFE LIKE THAT WHEN THERE ARE OTHER SAFER OPTIONS OUT THERE. I DON'T WATCH THE NEWS OR REGULAR TV SO AM NOT BRAINWASHED WITH ALL THE PROPAGANDA OUT THERE. I HAVE HAD ADVERSE EFFECTS FROM PRESCRIPTION DRUGS BEFORE AND WANT NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM ANYMORE. THOSE WERE WITH FDA APPROVED DRUGS SO THEIR APPROVAL MEANS NOTHING TO ME. THEY LET FAR TOO MANY DRUGS ON THE MARKET WITH DEVASTATING SIDE EFFECTS. PEOPLE BLINDLY TRUST DOCTORS LIKE I DID. YOU DON'T QUESTION THEM YOU JUST DO WHAT THEY TELL YOU TO DO THINKING THEY KNOW BEST BUT THEY DON'T CONSIDER THE SIDE EFFECTS. IT IS UP TO YOU TO DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH. IT'S YOUR LIFE. CHOOSE WISELY. LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES. YOU ARE THE ONE WHO HAS TO LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR DECISION SO CHOOSE WISLY. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH. TRUST YOUR INTUITION. SEEK OUT NATURAL REMEDIES USING NUTRITION,SUPPLEMENTS,HERBS BUT BE CAREFUL WITH THOSE TOO. ALWAYS THOROUGHLY RESEARCH AND CHECK FOR SIDE EFFECTS. LIVE AND LEARN AND TRY TO STAY AWAY FROM RUSSIAN ROULETTE SITUATIONS AS BEST YOU CAN. GOOD LUCK.

THESE LINES WERE STUCK IN MY HEAD SO I HAD TO GET UP AND WRITE THEM DOWN.

super short and to the point truth

I remember my younger daze in Chicago I could see the stars at night. I guess I took it for granted. I knew the Big Dipper and Little Dipper and always looked for them and was always trying to learn new constellations. I loved looking up at the stars. As the years went by it was getting harder and harder to see the stars at night. At first I thought it was due to my vision problems but now know it is due to unnecessary light pollution. They make the street lights way too bright ...brighter than necessary and that blocks our view of the stars. All they have to do is use amber lighting and shield the lights. People have a right to see the stars. We need to stop light pollution. I miss the stars at night. Now all I can see is the moon. I suppose I am lucky to still be able to see that and occasionally when there is a nearby planet to the moon that looks like a star next to it is visible but I want to see the constellations. I want to see the Milky Way. We need to speak up about light pollution. Everyone deserves to see the stars at night.

JUST THINKING ABOUT HOW ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES AND YOU SHOULD ALWAYS FOLLOW YOUR INTUITION INSTEAD OF DO WHAT OTHERS TELL YOU TO DO. IT'S YOUR LIFE AND YOU LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES. I LOOK BACK WITH REGRET AT ALL THE TIMES I JUST TOOK A PRESCRIPTION BECAUSE A DOCTOR TOLD ME TO WITHOUT RESEARCHING IT MYSELF. YOU GO FOR HELP WITH A PROBLEM THEY GIVE YOU SOMETHING THAT IS SUPPOSED TO MAKE IT GO AWAY AND YOU END UP WITH MORE PROBLEMS AND THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM STILL NOT FIXED. THEN YOU TRY TO WARN OTHERS ABOUT IT SO THEY DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE YOU DID AND THEY DON'T LISTEN. I GUESS PEOPLE JUST NEED TO LEARN THE HARD WAY AND THEN IT'S TOO LATE...SUCH IS LIFE...LIVE AND LEARN.
