Two Sides of the Same World Empty
PostSubject: Two Sides of the Same World   Two Sides of the Same World EmptyThu Jun 30, 2011 5:56 pm

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
