grass grows through the asphalt

what can you say?
on a perfect day?
and i’m really not looking to rhyme
but it fit
so sue me if i lived
moment to moment
taking it all in
in good company
among the kindred
who have found a way
to unplug
and maybe have a conversation
instead of sitting mesmerized
before the Screen
Gumbytron!
don’t let it go away
don’t take them all away
the waking Dead
let me tell you something
you can fool the masses
but there are always some
who will find a way to free their asses
and i want to be there
to soak it in
with every breath i draw
the gift of another Day
drawing breath
with those that speak their Mind
and the word Unkind
is just in jest
and we can take it
because we know
this Joke
this Wink that woke
a lion’s roar is just a kitten’s purr
among such as these
and now i see them Everywhere
don’t tell me Humanity is dead
don’t tell me People can’t relate
despite the best efforts
to the contrary
i see Hope
even in this Nowhere town
so look around
listen
you might be surprised
at what you see and hear
grass grows through the Asphalt
and oh the stories
I have heard today
