The World


This world.

Yes. This one

The one you're a part of

Is dying

The United States falls

The Middle East quarrels

The world is gripped by panic, and fear

Pestilence

War

Poverty

The list continues

Corrupt government officals lining their pockets

through the misery of the people

The world. This world

Needs a change

Admit or don't, but we will die all the same

Id rather die old in age

Than young and in pain

Watching the world I loved disintegrate

Slowly fade away

Hypocrisy is life

Judgement is a style

Love everyone

Don't be corrupt

And go the extra mile

Our world is worse for wear I fear

And we need to make a change

So take a stand

Don't fear the worst

Together we can fix almost anything.

Anything I post on here is not something I think through. I make all this up on the fly. I just let my mind wander. I may be offensive, so maybe take a little caution viewing my posts. If you view them. I've got quite the mind and I'm an intellectual. Anything else... I dunno. Guess we'll see what I think of later.
