The Netherlands destroyed its citizens’
Trust in their main institutions
Corruption & more abuse happens
Conflict of interest hinders solutions
Trust in Government
Memorial Preparations
Egos & high demands
Led to a split in the team
There may be no hands
In next year’s war memorial team
Spite
It is tempting to act out of spite
Towards others ~ yet,
It’s yourself you will bite
It’s a backfiring, self harming bet
Better open the heart to new, positive fight
Russia
Worries & tensions rise
Someone should get wise
From my distance, I uneasily judge
On who should budge
Lucid Dream
We young adults were a circus group
The elders were on holiday
A tall man, a bit older than us,
Invited himself to the group
He started off okay,
Then started to terrorize us
He killed already one of our group
So, we tried staying clear off his way
Then, he tried a constructive role to us
He suggested ideas for the group
And its festive season opening day,
To an unconspicuous lady unknown to us;
Then he reappeared & talked to the group
I was his only opponent able to downplay
This man — I could fly; spit fire; thus,
I did what I could to defend the group
His face started to melt, deform like soft clay
Then, I woke up, thus saving our circus 🙂💛
— Or, imposing myself on our group?
Polarisation & Segregation
They are Dutch people’s fear dominion
A small group can hijack
A whole people — to mention vaccination
Being their civil rights infringing hack
Split Loyalties
In some of us, several identities reside
That gives a hard time choosing sides
As soon as conflict arises
In such case, it’s best to avoid crises
Complicated Conflicts
When both parties have a good point
Likely, both are ‘right’
Then forces should be joint
There’s no solution only with might
This Earthday
Our urban farm was rescued
The evil witch will be offered new land
They listened to a word I threw
Towards a graceful exit from our land
💛🏆
The Garden
The end of the conflict,
No, the mismatch, is nearing
Soon, we can give the verdict
To those no one could hatch
Moments for Gratitude
This week, several good things I met
Even if life may be a bet
Our gardeners enter conflict mediation
I received anti-covid vaccination
Garden Conflict
There’s a serious conflict
Around our urban farm
There’s been painful harm
But, there’s help now towards a verdict
A Look Forward
Our garden conflict will be wrapped up
No choice
Than again, raise a voice
I’m emptying another loaded chore cup
Garden Conflict
Different expertise levels
Co-exist & clash in our project
Conflict of interest dishevels
Our structure — I suspect
Escalation
A good mood was trashed
Different agendas clashed
Resentment is expressed now
Pride makes people refuse to bow
