Thirty-second World

By heinzs

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Thirty-second World Inundated, day in and out, buy this, buy that... you can't live without! Life reduced to half-minute spots - no wonder we are all attention-deficited robots! Slam, bam - thank you, ma'am! Instant gratification is the rule - who has time to give a damn? We need a chance to catch our breath, take pause - see the world... grasp some enjoyment before death! Take back our souls - our lives - from the worshippers of Mammon - the evil empire, on greed it thrives! Multinational corporations the world rule, petroleum and steel, tobacco and drugs - they make of each of us the fool. Unity of purpose - to live our dreams - must be our guide and motivation - reality is not what it seems. Take back control of life's reins - stop the rampaging lunacy while yet the spark of hope remains. 1-13-2002 Written January 13th, 2002 © on Jan 13 2002 01:44 PM PST, Heinz Scheuenstuhl    0 • 12
