Calmly the day begins and humankind open their eyes and resolve to do well
To start anew and respond not react
Then the first gust of derision, division, drivel and dirt sweeps us up
Sucks us into the whirlpool
And our better selves are lost, faint wisps still linger in our pyjamas
Like boys on a night out who only wanted to have fun
We start brawling, throwing punches, slipping and falling
Until…
It begins again in the morning
The calm is after and before
And we never learn.
