People Need
(we need)
x
Work
And salvation
Food and drink
Both safe
And a revival now and then
Safety itself
And companionship
Light in darkness
Not blinding
Not enigma
Shows the way
Only some direction needed
x
A place to go to sleep
Maybe with others close by
To wake up in a medium
Of security
Here, we call it democracy,
x
Which begs the first
And final matter
That is freedom
That we paid a paradise
To own

Food, shelter, honest work, and belief. Well said, Christopher. So simple really.

Thank you! It’s kind of a preoccupation really, what people need. I think it’s possible to have the basic things of life available for everyone. I think they are available, in fact. And we’d do well to say so and make it so. I hope you’re doing really well and having a pleasant weekend.
