Tempers

Tempers are flaring out there,
that’s for sure.
But fighting fire with fire,
That’s not a cure!

As the light becomes brighter,
the dark turns and bites,
You can stand steady and sooth them,
or run into their fights.

When tempers are flaring,
the thing to remember,
Don’t take their rage personal,
it’s not yours,so be clever.

Their struggle’s internal,
but the world sees their pain,
Practice compassion,
show them restraint.

An eye for an eye,
leaves everyone blind!
You can’t answer violence,
with more of its kind!

Tempers are high right now,
no one can deny this,
be stillness, send light,
that will help with their blindness.
