We call it a "level playing field," but some of us are running on asphalt while others are sinking in the sand. We built these halls with high ceilings and grand staircases, then wondered why those in wheelchairs were still waiting at the bottom of the steps.

The system breaks, the coffers swell, A widening gulf, a living hell. The rulers smile, they play their game,

Anger stirs a troubled sea, Hurting you and hurting me. It clouds your thoughts, it steals your peace, A bitter feeling that won't cease. Don't hold tight to anger's chain, It's wrong and brings you only pain. Anger's quick, a thoughtless spark, Leaving wounds within the dark. Be patient, clear, and kind instead, These gentle virtues, gently led. Don't react, stay calm and still, Meditate, and bend your will. It takes courage to be kind, To see with open heart and mind. We're
