Political Minds

A letter to the politically minded.

Dear political mind, the over critical mind who let's the views of the world's leaders live in your mind.

Sometimes you're teachers, or cops and even pastors. Fighting against your brothers in service of your masters.

They come in the form of left wing and right-wing, swearing up and down that they know the right thing.

It's like their every other word is filled with hate, when they refused to back down from a heated debate.

It's seems the motto is I'm right and you're wrong, and I only dance to the beat of my own song.

You spend all day and night watching the news, and when they say something you don't like you're singing the blues.

You can't look at your brother in flesh like a he's a friend to me, his beliefs differ, so he's my enemy.

The politics have filled your soul with strife. You've let it control your mind and control your life.

Where you stand is no mystery, even on your social media you can't agree to disagree.

You're looking at the other party as the other side, not realizing that your fights against your brother's side.

You constantly argue about what makes the country better, but your arguments always lead to nothing better.

While you're preaching on political commitments, your spirit is disturb and your heart bleeds resentment.

Why must you let this worldly issue swallow you whole, and remain to be the worst tainted part of your soul.

There's nothing wrong with an opinion you think is vital, but never make your political beliefs an idol.

In your mind is where this evil shouldn't rock around, let's lay the politics down and find some common ground.

All politics aside, we really need each other, no good future will come from trying to defeat each other.

Let's band together, we can stand together, release our grip on the politics and put our hands together.
