A World Without Humanity

A world without humanity,
Is one already lost,
Everyone going for best,
No matter what the cost.

You would see the poor,
Your would see their pain,
You would see their lives,
Flowing down the drain.

You would go home,
The new tv switched on,
You'd watch the poor on the news,
Maybe even laugh at their blues.

YouTube then opened,
On your laptop,
Watching the 'best new video',
And others non-stop.

You would look at your phone,
'wuu2?' you text to friends,
Then you would text, text away,
Knowing no ends.

You would see government choices,
Affect the poor, the meek,
And you'd simply say,
'Well I've had a hard week!'

You would watch others struggle,
Leave them when they fail,
Join the successful ones,
Then when they fall, bail.

You'd fight with your neighbour,
See fights between husband and wife,
You'd see people fight with themselves,
Because they got beat by life.

You would see that someone's killed them self,
'Oh, we'll that's a shame,'
But that's a life cut down in its prime,
Because of the suffered pain.

The poor would be getting poorer,
As the rich feed off of them,
They ask you for a little change,
But why would a hand you lend?

Society would be corrupt,
Friends turn on each other,
Husbands fight with wives,
Sons fight with mothers.

You make a big mistake,
There is a dead end at your journey long,
You thought your friends would help you,
Oh boy, you were wrong.

You would be under the stars,
Sleeping at a door,
The world eats itself,
As its scuffles become a war.

This is our society,
Or at least what will be,
If we don't change our world,
We will lose our humanity.

If life is an open door, why am I always trapped on the outside. With all this space around me and no where to go, no one to share it with. The cruel and unforgiving darkness becomes a blessing and my mind blurs the lines that others have set in place for me. I am at one with my self. I am at one with others. I am at one with the darkness. I am at one with the unknown.

Life?

Life is passing us by -like a floating butterfly. We all live short but happy lives, we all laugh we all cry; but are we content with our lives. Oh no -we want more and more and more.

When The World

#projecthumanity When the world starts bleeding down. The narcissistic's start to pound. A skeptics idiom will bring them down. From there golden, high arched clouds.

Fakeness

It’s a cruel world. So I’ve been told. By the ones who are supposed to know. And there is no fair. No one really shares. From the goodness of their souls. People speak. The wiser preach.
