shout-out to the World

The Earth sits, hanging in space,

Two worlds splits it,

One in light, the Greatest, the Best!

One in dark, "We'll help it up!"

I make a tag, and it's answered with a "lol!"

I post a blog, and theviewers spread "hate"

"hate", a noun? "lol", a word?

The World suddenly raced to make new words,

The World suddenly shut out the Other World,

The Third World.

The Third World - it lies forgotten,

Under a mound of "hippie trash".

The Third World - it tries to crawl up the same ladder,

But the world takes away the same ladder,

Gives it another ladder,

A shorter ladder.

"Here," the World says, "Donate your money and help the needy - I did!"

"I did!"

"I did!"

The World shuts me out - I am lost.

The world is no World, with no text-posts or blogs or inter-web,

or tweets and likings and "friends".

I have no World.

All because I was late in the World's ascension.

I am the next world?

A world of decline, a world of war, a world of hunger, a world of savages?

The Earth sits, hanging in space,

Two worlds splits it,

One in light, the Greatest, the Best!

One in dark, always in dark.
