Think Positive they keep saying
and I try
Just when I'm thinking positive
Why did you die?
Why did they kill you?
Just when I'm thinking positive
Why were you raped?
Just when I'm thinking positive
Why was justice reserved for some
and came too late for others?
Just when I'm thinking positive
Why did you lose your loved one?
Just when I'm thinking positive
Why did you call just to insult me?
Just when I'm thinking positive
Why did you celebrate when I lost and you won?
Just when I'm thinking positive
Why are there sooooo many children and women hurting so bad?
Just when I'm thinking positive
Why were there laborers walking home while I protected myself from Covid and stayed inside with food on my table and a roof over my head?
Just when I'm thinking positive
Why did you hear me out just to do just the opposite of what I asked?
Just when I'm thinking positive
why did the seals in Antarctica die?
And
Just when I'm thinking positive
Why are there so many painful programs on Netflix?
And yet, I must think positive
meditate, ruminate, and shut out all the crap that's happening
because my thoughts can 'affect' my body
So lead me like the proverbial lamb
to the slaughter house of Positive Thinking.
