A Shattered Society

All I ask for is simple

I crave air, sunlight, and the sky-

And all those other necessary things

Like Starbucks and chicken nuggets and my phone

Omg my phone what would I-

Do you hear yourself?

Seriously do you hear what you’re saying?

You crave Starbucks over the air you breathe.

Well if it’s eight in the morning duh.

How would I even survive?

I think you would be just fine

I mean isn’t the knowledge that you are alive

Enough to sustain-

Blah blah blah

Of course I’m alive.

If I wasn’t I wouldn’t get to see

The new update notification for Instagram.

Ooh selfie!

Now why don’t you take a second and get back onto the topic.

What topic?

You know.

…

If you could change one thing about the world what would it be?

Ooh I got ya!

Well I would have to say

Clothes.

I would make

the cutest clothes available for all!

Ooh and make Wi-Fi free!

And have universal cell reception!

But really that’s all I would change.

If that’s all.

                Well if we’re done I’m off.

                There’s a new episode of the Kardashians

                And I can’t miss that!

Of course not.

Typical

All so very typical

We all say this

We all do this

We are a shallow society

Run by our need for luxury and technology

Unnecessary

Broken

We are all so very broken

And we think we can fix it by buying

The latest clothes, the best technology

But we merely cover the mess

The blanket lies on all of our faces

Plastered, blinding us

All I want to do is

Grab a knife and saw it off all our faces

And expose humanity to life
