**When Did That Happen?

The Middle #Class Is Disappearing
A headline on a space filler article
And I had to stop for a minute
Because how exactly
Do you just erase
One of the largest groups
Of people in the world
And no one's staging a riot?
And when did we start believing
We're worth so little?

**Universal Child

I would dream
In the way that words do
But my pen weeps
Ink blots & watercolour visions
Of fragile hearts caged
Behind the star fire
And earth song woven into
A prison of blood & bone
By the vastness of the universe
Each breath fueling the
Ripples of flames
That are a soul ablaze

**The Great Fall

We'll make it great again
That was the rallying cry
Only it was never
That great to begin with
So how long will it be
Before it all topples over
When everything you've built
Started with a foundation
Of doubt and outright lies
I'm reckon about
Four years or so
