Truth Serum
It’s no secret! Everywhere we turn, everywhere we look; we are being lied to. As I lay on a thorny bed of lies forced to endure my racing beta thoughts. Grief struck me with the force of lightning, for my thoughts once naively lain upon the idea that the people running the world would never deceive us.
Elected officials are akin to the wagging tails and sloppy tongues on happy, goofy dogs; and world leaders share the same thing in common: They all have a serpent’s tongue. Media syndicates cause more devastation than nuclear weapons, weaponized to disseminate fear and upload subliminal messages, hacking into our subconscious minds with rogue viruses.
Due to social programming (conditional programming), change is not so easy for most people, but change is what the world needs to see. Changes in: Governments, politics, economics, and our legal systems are long overdue. Perhaps the reason why change is so hard for most people: It requires them to reprogram their minds to look at the ugly truth. Most people would rather look the other way than face change.
Change is removing the knife that was stuck in Malcolm X’s “back 9 inches” from our legal systems, and implementing ways for citizens to heal. Instead, the same bloody knife is left in everyone’s back 6 inches deep, impeding progress, causing citizens to bleed profusely from their unhealed wounds.
Propagandists feed us innocent truths, obscuring a host of nefarious lies. They tell us fluoride protects our teeth, but it severely calcifies our pineal glands and fogs our brains. Globalists make insidious claims about chemtrails being harmless or how they curtail global warming, yet chemtrails are laced with undisclosed toxic chemicals; killing us off and controlling our minds. Although misinformation is seen as something more forgivable than disinformation, depending on the news sources or sources of information, all lies can be spun as the truth.
Real change is giving citizens the power to stop Derrick Chauvin while he had his knee firmly pressed on George Floyd’s neck and spine, suffocating him to death. Real change is removing authoritative power from the unscrupulous grip of Governments and putting it back into the hands of the people. Real change is treating people fairly and equally because they are human beings, not just because they identify as LGBTQ.
If you ask me, everyone can see the necessity for change in the world, but it’s before they realize “they must be the change they want to see.” Then, most people take a step back or revoke their original stance on change. There can be no change until people take a sobering look at themselves and do what they can to make a difference in the world. Unquestionably, what must change in the world is simple! There need not be anymore Top Secrets and we must stop being lied to. Lied to by our Governments; lied to by politicians; lied to by physicians; lied to by philanthropic organizations like the WHO. Lies! Lies! Lies! Like rotting flesh in a bag being sold as fresh meat at full price.Voting is closed

I have always said it takes a tragedy to change people’s minds on what they believe. It’s always been that way. By the time they realize that they need to be the change it’s so bad that the pivot and walk the other way.

Hello Mavis,
I appreciate your patience in waiting for my reply, as I’ve been a tad bit too busy for my liking lately. At any rate, I couldn’t agree with you more. Once people realize the world needs to take a massive shift in direction, or the necessity to completely change the course of humanity. It’s nearly too late because we have been trave…read moreWrite me back Subscribe  or  log in to reply

Antonio, I can feel your passion as your read this. I so agree that the world needs so much change, and each one of us need to be a part of that change. There is so much that has happened in our society that systematically should have never been able to occur in the first place. And we need to not let that keep happening over and over. Thank you…read more

Hello Lauren,
you are most welcome. I want to thank you for creating a platform in which people can express themselves openly and freely without being subjected to censorship (within reason), or become a subject of oppression. In the hands of each and every American citizen resides the power for change, but how is this possible when people are so…read moreWrite me back Subscribe  or  log in to reply

Why can it NOT be TOMORROW🤷♂️
Changing the world is a daunting task; all the dust and debris that we can not unsee. Crime and killings are almost as common as finding a dime on the street and the amount of homeless people is not a sight to see. These are the poor aspects of the place that we live in, but don’t have to live in a world that we aren’t proud to see! How do we change it when we all see things differently?
No matter what side of the winding world you are on, time is distributing equally. There are 24 hrs in a day, and we all choose to use it in our unique way. if every gun was substituted with a thought of graditude, every crime substituted with a compliment and for everyone without a home a place to stay, hey, who’s to say that tomorrow can’t be a world changing day?

Kale, I wished it were all as simple as you so wonderfully wrote in your letter. Exchanging the weapons for an act of gratitude and the homelessness situation under control would be ideal. I too agree EVEVRYONE should have a decent place to lay their heads. Great poem!

What you speak of is a utopian that I hope one day we can experience. I agree that every deserves a decent place to lay their head and a simple compliment can change someone’s day.

Jake this is wonderful. I always thought about that too – if one day everyone woke up and said today I am going to change the world, could we make a huge shift in one day? Probably! This is so creatively written and thoughtful. I absolutely love it. Thank you for sharing! <33 Lauren

Night Time Dream : Change In this World
Opportunities in the world missed from fear,
A foe I know too well.
It reminds me of why I stay up all night,
Scrolling and scrolling,
At the lives of others,
The blue light in the background putting me to sleep.I want change in the world where I am not dreaming someone else’s story,
Where memories aren’t digital and photos are taken with cameras,
Images I can hold in my hands and cherish in my heart.
Rather, a tangible memory at the hands, like a beloved book I can turn the pages to a time I once loved.I want a world where it is safe to love, no more heart breaks or lack thereof, because
If you love yourself, you can survive a heartbreak.A world where you have a story to say how you met your significant other.
And not just on an app, which is fine, fate has its tale.
But I want a world where there is change in how we speak with one another.
And by speak, I mean actually speak not just through hands on a touchscreen.I’d like to see thought put into the words spoken to one another,
Where time is taken less for granted.
And where communication has improved,
To the point you know if you’ll never hear back from a love interest,
Because you communicated your disinterest or shared your feelings.I want you to tell me how you feel
Without fear of a disappearing act.I want change in this world where we learn how to deal with difficult feelings.
And not push them to the side like that message left unsent,
Discarded love letters on the side of the road.
I want encouragement to say hi to someone new, less social anxiety.I want change in the world where you can toss your social anxiety to the side,
Where fear is faced instead of avoiding, change.
I want a world with less fear because it prevents you from talking to your neighbor.
Not only that, but I want to live my daily life in peace.I know it is daunting to want world peace,
But there can be world peace in my internal world.In my peaceful internal world, I am basking in the grass with no shoes on,
And dancing to the music of my soul, the change I want to see where time
Stops still. Being able to take in the moment, no guilt for a silent stillness and
Enjoying a moment, to be fully present in the moment. A mind focused at one task
At a time, I want to be able to live life with only one job on my mind.I find that fear and change go hand in hand.
There is comfort in staying the same and I want a world where change is embraced.
And I want time to stop still with a pause in the moment at night, returning to
Simpler times, phone out of sight, dreaming my own dreams.Voting is closed

To live in a world Thai isn’t so digital. To have organic relations and conversations. To have true connections that isn’t through a screen. Thank you so much for sharing.

This is honest, raw, and real, and I love it! I think you’re right, change and fear go hand and hand. Also, it’s funny, I am going away with my boyfriend (who I met at an event seven months ago), and I was thinking how I wish I had a Polaroid camera. They were so much fun. Technology has isolated us, and also has us living in other people’s…read more

Can We?
Can we all stop for just a brief moment and listen?Listen to your inner self, with intention and care.
Go for a walk with yourself and by yourself.
Let’s observe and see where your thoughts, wants and your desires will guide you.
Let’s concentrate and build a better relationship with ourselves first and then others.
Let’s focus on open and raw communication.
Open communication without any distractions and acknowledgment of our fears.
Let’s be real with ourselves,
and with others who we deeply care for.
Let’s opened up and embrace it all.
Life is worth living and experiencing all by being present and connected.
Clear communication is the bridge
to a positive change.
A change for a better tomorrow.
Let’s be honest and drop the pretense.
Let’s connect with each other with
intent and integrity.
Let’s our emotions and fears be present
as you and I intellectually grow together.
Let’s leave all the past in the past and
start a new today.
Now is the time!
Today is the day to create a better tomorrow.
Together we stand .
Together let’s build confidence and trust.
Together let’s build a bridge
using clarity and dedication.
A bridge with great foundation.
Henceforth, let’s start by listening closer
and connecting deeper.
Let’s be vulnerable
and present with each other, for each other.
Today, tomorrow and for ♾️.

Having a good relationship with yourself is so important and I can agree that it can only be achieved in solitude. Alone with all your thoughts. Thank you for sharing.

Humanity’s Reset
Humanity’s Reset
By Michelle HalloweenIt’s an all-consuming inquiry.
The backdrop of most of my daydreams.
Humanity’s Reset.
A refocus for all humankind.
And endure, Indigenously.We are amid this Pluto Shift, anyways.
Perhaps it’s our last chance to thrive.
Humanity’s reset had colonialism and classism.
Racism and phobias had not been imagined.
Or
Too devastating to consider its execution.The evolution of music stays the same.
Art becomes the currency void of any capitalistic intention.
As Earth and humanity heal and overcome its present devastation.Huh.
Imagine what it’s like to daydream of Humanity’s Reset.
The refocus of billions;
counting the rapacious eighty million.
The Shift I fantasize of.
Is to endure; Indigenously.Voting is closed

A humanity reset sounds so nice. To just start back over and trying to do it right this time. Where we don’t see anyone as different in a negative light. That sounds so nice.

Love, Me.
All body equality,
No differences to see.
My limb, your limb.
She, he, her, him.
Gender bender,
Fat and slender.
Talk or sign,
Sighted, blind.
All the same.
No self shame.
Always be true.
Love, Me
Love, YouVoting is closed
