So it is.
I wish I could have the power to change the world,
It wouldn’t be for better or worse though.
I don’t mean to rid the world of good or evil.
Simply change it.
Nor is this a political matter I’m concerned with.
Democracy and Communism can keep their ways.
I am not trying to assume power over all the earth.
A little modification.
I don’t mean to alter the state of weather either.
The earthquakes are necessary, the winds a must too.
All sunny days would be boring, and all wintry too droll.
A new order.
Do not confuse this with a technological desire.
Teleportation is sketchy, and the flying car can wait.
Nor is it my desire to have to preserve meats with salt.
Just a difference is all.
One might presume me to be speaking of acquiring love.
Lonely arms desire someone special to hold.
Loves lost lead to new lives, and I’m no cupid.
Some altering, perhaps.
Maybe it’s that I don’t know what needs the alterations.
The world is oh so uneasy, but I am oh so uncertain.
In the end, I fear that I am powerless to help.
So it is.
