Collective Conscience
A group of people
Living in peace and harmony,
Supporting each other for
The common good.
One person emerges
Who craves a larger slice of
The pie for himself,
To fill a hole.
Balance interrupted,
Collaboration obstructed,
A test of their
Collective conscience.

Forebears
A pasted-on smile
Obscures dark bile
Built up over generations of
Harshness and abuse.
Now, unable to feel,
She expends all her energy
Repeating the cycle,
Destroying people to amass things,
Hoarding as much stuff
As possible to compensate
For what’s missing although it
Doesn’t heal her pain.
She doesn’t know what else to do and
Refuses to change course,
Just like her forebears.
