I want to change the world for good, but how?
The world is big and I am very small.
To read, to love, to learn, all vital things,
you have everyday but others don’t.
To read: a skill one needs to thrive today.
Without this simple skill it’s hard to work,
and yet, absurdly, so few can. Now what?
To love: freely, and with no fear of law
Love is love, despite what others think,
and yet, absurdly, we’re not free to love.
To learn: as much as possible, unhindered,
by money, means or law. Accessible by all.
And yet, absurdly, learned degrees are rare.
Three things found lacking in this world, so now
what steps to take to change this world for good?
(an attempt at blank verse)
