Analysis of Soul News (New Media)
& one day
The news said No
we will not repeat such things
On a screen
we read for you
words our Heart will not
& one day
The news said No
we will not be on such teams
to bring you things
Of good instead
we search our mouth to see
and if our Light
feel too dim
We take a day off on a whim
and sit in silence
As we read
the best and most postive things
or dream
Of a world where
people listen not in a dream
of repeated/
generated
things on screens
but to their heart
And then they speak
(many hearts in need of clean-
ing) for this dream
To start agleamiing
resting from the ways of 'team'-ing
thoughts stuck
In a stockade
all primed to move with flow
towards unknown
An unreal think
of other people's patterns
have become
Your own
and that is not your Soul
