In Summer, Clouds

In Winter, Distant Sun

In Sunlight, Shade

In Darkness, Where Demons Run

In Wealth, Worthlessness

In Poverty, Enough

In Hard Times, Relief

In Good Times, Too Much Stuff

In Bachelors, Jealousy

In Marriages, Broken Melodies

In Wartime, Humanity

In Peacetime, Dishonesty

In Followers, False Confidence

In Leaders, Rightful Doubt

In Traitors, Deadly Whispers

In Whistleblowers, Unheard Shouts

In Governments, Grand Larcenists

In Armies, Serial Arsonists

In Homes, Hostilities

On Streets, Lay Lost Abilities

In Daytime, Self Deception

At Night, Soulful Reflection

In Mirrors, No Transparency

Through Windows, Missed Reality

Awakened, Dreaming Hopefully

Asleep, Mourning So Mortally

On Earth, Self Led Self Mutiny

In Earth, No Opportunity
