when I'm peaceful
the world rocks less.

more intensity in the fall
straining to avoid a mess.

when I'm peaceful
the danger viewed as stress.

so I get the call
my country's the poorest.

lame people
clambering for ham.

the racist mauls
their neighbour's nan.

how can anyone stand tall
knowing the depths of their hell.

suffer at our peril
we get it wrong and who can tell.

when I'm angry
no focus only insanity.

follow false idols
false leaders fake news polls.

no critical thinking
angry at others.

when I sting
I fear no-one cares.

now I'm sitting
home in a can.

when I'm peaceful
I know what I am.
