It’s Not Normal!

Unfortunately the virus does not discriminate.
And it’s a pity that human beings do.
We need to defend against both kinds.
To stay healthy and to keep our values.
So don’t forget to protect your mind.
That’s a source of infiltration too.
But to accomplish that you have to align yourself with the truth.
Don’t let your mind become numb to the abnormal.
Much of what has been before our eyes are not at all common.

Armed militia planning to take out the Michigan Governor
Because they didn’t think her decision of lock down was right.
They wanted to go beyond her.
Kidnapping civilians was in their sight.
And even though they had a local sheriff’s support.
They were also going to target law enforcement.
That’s not normal!

A President taking his cues from Fox News.
Aligning himself only with media that promotes conservative views.
Going on a radio program to rant and rave, using foul language.
On the White House grounds to campaign.
When it should only be for the People’s Business.
How insane!

The AG protecting and campaigning for the President.
The FDC, CDC and other agencies no longer independent.
The Justice Department still aiming to jail the President’s rivals.
The President, not seen as a public servant, but an idol.
Ridiculous!

A President taking aim at Agents and Agencies.
When they paint a picture he does not care to see.
Instead of tending to Communities’ and the Nation’s stability,
From those around him, he demands loyalty,
And he acts against citizens with hostility.
The Government is actively making it difficult for citizens to vote.
And are actually targeting the poor and vulnerable.
Horrible!

Senators and Congressman should not worship or fear the President.
They should be working professionally in unison for Citizens.
Presidents should agree to the peaceful transition of power.
And they should not be changing their minds hour by hour.
Presidents should not grant favors in exchange for money.
People should not gain access to the President
By staying on his properties or making use of his facilities.
He never separated his personal from his position in Government.
Tax-payers are lining the pockets of the Trump Organization.
Appalling!

Voters are not to be anyone’s minions.
They should get the facts and relevant information.
Not put the Political Party above all.
Not treat the political leader like the leader of a cult.
No longer valuing people as fellowmen.
Only as allies or opponents.
Horrendous!

You cannot let all of this sink in
As if they are normal happenings.
The anxiety and tension you feel – Yes they’re real.
But at times you need to let it go.
From your mind, body and soul.
Prolonged stress can lead to distress.
That can’t be your new normal.
It changes your neurological system.
That can leave you with permanent symptoms.
Dangerous!

So from this President we know what we will get.
It’s been four years of chaos and no dust hasn’t settled yet.
From all that he gives, we should be looking for relief.
Not have four more years of numbness and grief.
For ours and the Nation’s sanity.
Let’s not have this become the new reality.
Hopefully!
