Beyond the Illusion

We have no redress no way to change this Third party peer review this curse or kiss This love or hate this to appreciate Or not which depends on what we have done
The wheel we set in motion once begun Will turn until we turn to dust and then Let judgment of another kind begin But those who are kind need never despair
Judgment is kind to those willing to care For others and not just for what they say When we are out of earshot well away While going to tomorrow growing there Together on and off this stage we share
Let us create before it is too late Our fate tomorrow being kind today
