Bad Luck
Sometimes we are victims
To bad luck and ill
Intentions, but I try hard
To see the best in people
Seen through a screen
The world can look
Like it’s out to get you
But there is more to
See than the headlines
Or the polarisation
We can back others into
Corners and have the same
Done to us, but how
We respond is our freedom
I choose not to hold on
To this slight either
Real or imagined
I already have more
Than I could ever
Need
Thoughts
It’s important to try and see the best in people. We do not know what they are going through or where they are in their journey.
I was never into Nick Cave until I read his book, Faith, Hope and Carnage. I found his story to be emotionally raw and honest. His show in Leeds 2024 was spectacular. Subscribe to his Red Hand Files if you are not already.
