Whats It All About?

Its all about the twisting, turning, thinking, learning, bass pounding coffee grounding, love-making, risk-taking, life, yo.

I believe that everyone deserves to be treated like a human being, to not be hungry, to not be afraid. I believe that a country has the responsibility to take care of its citizens, and I believe that everyone has the responsibility to look after those in their community, the global community. Finally, I believe that every human life is as equally valuable as the next; it doesn't have a price tag. You could say I'm an idealist, but really I'm just not willing to settle for less.

used.

Karma is a fickle fellow
you see, for me, the rules do not apply
no matter how hard I try
to be nice, to do favors for others
I end up being used

Oh, yeah, sure you "like" me when I'm useful
an ear, a ride, when you're desperately lonely
but once its not to your advantage
I'm left on the side of the road
like yesterday's news

so what am I to do?
if I'm not so nice, people will not like me.
but in being nice, people use me and don't actually like me.
I suppose I bring this on myself
to feel like
I'm not so
alone.
