Together We Flourish — Divided We Flounder
Sensationalized reporting
Sweeping generalizations
Inflated sentiments
Morph into disconnect
Isolation
Bitterness
Fear…
Channel after channel
Each attempting to eclipse the other
Competing soundbites trying to sway
Yet, in the real world
I observe a much different story
I see
Folks joining hands
Working tirelessly
Building cohesive families
Earning honest livings
Looking out for their neighbors
Volunteering
Mentoring our youth
Goodwill extended every step of the way
And my admiration skyrockets
The camaraderie of upstanding citizens
Impassioned spirits merging with loving intent
Has always been the glue binding our communities
We don’t need anyone to decipher this for us
It’s ingrained in the very fiber of our shared humanity
Together We Flourish — Divided We Flounder
