SENSITIVE

were living in some really eye opening times
everything seems to be on the line
with growing insurance rates
on earthquakes, floods & fires
someones' screaming for a break
Bill Murry singing in the 7th inning
Cubs on a brink of a World Series
Hillary going delirious watching
a candidacy race going historical
in a run to save America
when myself can't see what people
see in Trump it's a major catastrophe

sensitive is when you hold a baby's hand
so innocent - when a woman pours a beer
she takes in another night
she can handle it more than a man
when your on a fence
you look for a friend in time of despair
sometimes you have to stand alone

never has there been a director able
to film a heart that's true
these paths & clouds that circle us
leaves us twirling in the air
with a surprise for everyone
i hope everyone's happy with their voting decision you made
for the first time i heard Hillary's Mother was an orphan
Michelle Obama tells us

we continue to beat a Drum in the Plains
where Natives in Standing Rock ND
stand for their land
i understand their anger & their beliefs
they sweat & give their time
to something you & i shouldn't ignore
sometimes their reasoning will prove you wrong
