IT'S CATCHING

No one will admit it but
Everybody does it
Some incessantly
Other occasionally
It is inherent in humanity

Contagious opining
Contagious hypocrisy
Contagious bellicosity
Contagious idiocy

We all feel it

Contagious drudgery
Contagious fear
Contagious indifference
Contagious insensitivity
Contagious disregard for humanity

We all assume it

Contagious corruption
Contagious grasping
Contagious thievery
Contagious fiddling

We all indulge in it

Contagious surfing
Contagious tweeting
Contagious uploading
Contagious networking
Contagious befriending

We like it

Contagious rhapsody
Contagious laughter
Contagious charity
Contagious loving
Contagious honesty

We sometimes don’t acknowledge it

Contagious despondency
Contagious flam
Contagious amnesia
Contagious ignorance
Contagious psychoses
Contagious misunderstanding

We are all in this together aren’t we?

Very well formed social commentary, all wrapped up in a neat little bow with the very astute question at the end.

thanks man,,,usually the seed for my poems are the newspaper or even a word in a song.......most of my poems are social commentary . so much happening that I am unhappy with so my poems give me an avenue to show my discontent or even to distil what I read. putting it down on paper kind of gets it out my mind  till the next seed is planted

glad you enjoyed

designer gear

individuality isnt king

Success is a label
A monogram
A brand
A fools gold of flam

To wear is the new...

Serious frown etched in sunscreen
Nails gleaning cherry red

The Little Star

There was a little star
She was a happy, sparkly orb
Carefree and full of heavenly light...
