<center> Sometimes, it feels 
like this is the end 
of the world, I know. </center>

<center> Violence, Covid-19,
a venomous 
political shit show. </center>

<center> But you mustn’t 
get lost in the static 
aloneness of now, </center>

<center> Or get distracted 
completely by the 
whens, whys, and hows. </center>

<center>  Peel back the storied layers, 
don't let the voiceless
hear our silence. </center>

<center> Their system, it’s glitching, 
this could be our one chance 
to stand in defiance. </center>

<center> Let this corrupt world wither 
and a new one begin.
If not now...*when?* </center>
