dancing with polaris

I do not care about celebrities,
I want to dance with the stars in the cosmos.

I do not care about TV families that are famous for pumping out children,
I want to meet my soon-to-be-born nephew.

I do not care about the latest fashion trends,
I want to see a poor child get a warm winter coat.

I do not care about shows that promote plastic surgery as prizes,
I want to know a doctor is working without borders.

I do not want to see women being told they are not good enough by advertisers,
I want to see every young woman find their own unique beauty.

I do not care about true blood,
I want to donate my next pint to save some lives.

I do not care about which celeb has the next chic dog,
I want to donate blankets to a local shelter.

I do not care about what overpaid sports figure is sleeping with which starlet,
I want to see local sports fields being maintained to promote childhood activity.

I do not care about being the first to post about the latest death in the news,
I want to see an elderly person being heard while they tell their life story.

I do not want to get angry about the nonsense,
I want to continue taking action to make a difference.
