Community
Community is
everything.
Tight and social
Everyone cares for
everyone else
No one goes
unnoticed, is lonely, or lost.
Community is
nothing.
Ships passing in
the dark
Fearful or
ambivalent or hatred of others
No one helping or
noticing anyone else
Take courage,
build your community
Nothing is achieved
inside a comfort zone.
Do the right
thing, because it is the right thing
Not because of
rules or fines.
Don’t speed, do
wear seatbelts
See others, really
see them.
Think of others’
safety
Get vaccinated.
Joy will bloom inside
Being kind is the
best salve
Community is
everything
The payback is
uncalculatable.
