| So Krobra has been writing poetry lately, and I've always meant to comment on their ingenuity, but I got distracted by my own poem that he's inspired me to write. Kinda my first time attempting something serious so here goes... Two Sides of the Same World
They say we are the blessed To live in this golden age This pinnacle of the human race Which Divine Providence has graced And we endow with endless praise
But there’s a secret they don’t profess Of a portrait embellished with stains From a palette of splattered paints Of an age of gilded disdain Bound by materialistic chains. They say we are the blessed To live in this golden age Full of compassion and charity Of universal prosperity And increasing longevity
Yet I would beg to digress Because freedom isn’t universal And prosperity is artificial Governments are controversial And full of corrupt officials
They say we are the blessed To live in this golden age When the price of all is known And happiness can be owned Through paper bills and cheap loans
But I say we have regressed For the price of a luxurious life Is paid by another’s strife Is happiness worth the cries Of the child laborers on which we rely?
They say we are the blessed To live in this golden age In a world of united nations Of a million vaccinations And boundless aspirations
But our world seems so decrepit Where resources are constantly strained In cities plagued by acid rain With an economy that cannot be sustained Where only corporate greed remains.
They say we are the blessed To live in this golden age I say this world is oppressed By moral values gone astray I say this world is possessed By the worth our money pays I say this world is distressed As hope dies to meet dismay I say we are the dead As we whimper till the end of days
