Circle Of Life -The Economy
Its Up To Us
Days go by fast.
Making precious moments last.
Doing my best for Climate Change.
So much we must rearrange.
Saving what I can.
For there will never be enough for the end.
Retirement hit strong.
The cost of living was all wrong.
Who can even afford to buy food?
Time to grow, and cook with wood.
It was like the circle of life went back.
Cereal now should come in a big sack.
Make a meal that lasts a week.
Reach to others to seek.
The ability to get ahead,
Dont listen to what the government has said.
Take action on your part.
Cutting back as a start.
Enjoy walks, and movies in the square.
The cheapest places to cut your hair.
We can do it, I know we can.
We all have to take a stand.

Talented Black creators spotlight: Catherine Nyomenda (Chap 3).
Catherine reminds me of an enigma wrapped within a riddle. When she writes, she skips between the poetic and the dramatic. Her highlights of the African lifestyles of herself, of authors whom she admires, and the many nuances of love keeps you wondering and pondering the passage of life.

But seriously though, the cost of living is so high nowadays. We can't even afford to die because the funeral and everything else costs a fortune too 🤣🤣🤣
