To Keep a Thriving Jive Alive

Downplayed and erased efforts made...
To eliminate an effectiveness,
That reflects the best of our youth.
And their abundant pursuits,
In a calculated abuse!
Betrays an undertaking that is fake!

Unconsciously they put nooses,
On a misdirected usefulness.
Professed and deemed to have a worthlessness.
That leaves all of humanity lost and bewildered...
In a vortexing hopelessness.

Forever disconnected from an investment gone!
And kept consciously unprotected...
To keep a thriving jive alive!
