This Damned World
So you had a bad day
Go on Sir
Do it yes
Tell me how painfully slow the traffic was on the way into the office
Tell me how annoying the radio ads were and how crippling it was to hear your boss's voice scrape against your selfishly tarnished soul
Yes you
You poor poor lady
Having to polish your fabricated dollhouse from top to bottom before the in laws come round
Hearing your children throw exasperated screams into your ear begging "mommy where's my toys?!"
Holding an Everest sized wash pile in your arms like its the weight of this damned world on your shoulders
This damned world
Are you out on the street?
Nothing to eat?
You so wrongly labelled as a parasite, a scoundrel, a scumbag, A FREAK?
Who do YOU think you ARE?
To tell them and he and she how to live their lives
To tell them they aren't worthy of what they don't have
To say whatever they never had they'll never miss
Get a job you said
Get a grip on LIFE you said
So you do it
You sip back the water as though it's never ending
You sip back the laughter and your lives that you
You are so wrongly wasting
So you sit complaining
Not compensating
Not thinking
Not doing
Not wishing
Not living
Not BEING
Anything
Anything but you
8am you
Screaming shouting crying out
About your live so terrible that you can't go on
You can't do it anymore
Because the first world just became too much
And that's just how it is
This
Damned
World

Hannah, I Loved This Poem. Beautiful :)
Thankyou Reina, kind regards ^~^
Hannah this is well written and biting, apathy is an awful thing and sometimes incurable, no excuses it just sometimes takes something like a storm to pull mass numbers of people to care about the state of others, it seems...your write has passion and is obviously relevant, maybe we live in a world full of miserable cynical people who are only concerned with their own lives....you bring good points to the forefront with wisdom, well said, well written....cheers
Thankyou so much. I felt as though this write had a high degree of significance to my life and the people I am surrounded by. I wrote this to raise awareness of the lives we live that society has so wrongly changed.
