If I were in Charge of the World

If I were in charge of the world 

I'd cancel sickness, early mornings, disrespect, and also Donald Trump.

If I were in charge of the world 
there'd be longer nights, safer streets, and people who love over hate.

If I were in charge of the world
you wouldn't have children without a home.
You wouldn't have abandoned pets on the road.
You wouldn't have the sex trade
or "You can't walk out at night alone."
You wouldn't even have fear.

If I were in charge of the world
chocolate would be a vegetable.
All men, women, and children would understand that we are equal and different.
And a person who sometimes forgot to change the litter box
and sometimes forgot to turn the light off
would still be allowed to be
in charge of the world.

  1. You weren't the only one cancelling Donald Trump! : ) I like your proposal for longer nights and no early mornings--that would fit my internal clock much better. Thanks, Haley!
