Look to your left
Look to your right
We see a life of strife
Asking how it happened
In ways it’s hard to imagine
Knowing what came before
We must change what’s in store
Around the world in every haven
There is a human soul worth saving
Disdain for the poor and upper classes
Believing in us has seen a mass exodus
Open our eyes to see we are a community
Various shades bound by different beliefs
Stand against a brother we need each other
If I judge you and you judge me how shall we see
The weight of this world as the issues compound
Faith has been bludgeoned but not worn down
We search in this life for just one single key
The spark for a better world is in you and me
From the time we are born till the time we’re old
Life is our advisory that is at war with the soul
Come together we struggle we must learn to see
The conviction of our resolve to be a community

I was going through the stories I wrote way before Vocal and found a series I’d penned on the American movie industry. I covered the economics of making and distributing movies, the ways the movie industry responds to modern challenges such as MeToo movement and the streaming technologies, and other topics, including some movie reviews.
