Keeping Up With The Joneses


Keeping the peace isn’t as

Easy as it should be.

Every person has their own opinions.

Positive aspects of every action.

Indifferent actions that have no impact.

Negative impacts on society.

Guess where I lie on the spectrum?

 

Uninvolved me,

Participating in neutrality.

 

When will

It be worth

The torment?

Have you lost your mind?

 

Transition into

Hatred, the

Epitome of weakness.

 

Joining in the war,

Opening every wound.

Neighbors scream.

Empty heads.

Stoic hearts.

Echoed arguments.

Silence.
