    THE WORLD

    The World:

    People lusting after things unreal

    Only trusting what we cannot feel

    Filling our souls with infatuation

    Doing anything to get a lil' gratification

    Flushing our morals down the drain

    Taking drugs to numb the pain

    Yeah we are all so comfortable

    Aren't our lives so damn pleasurable

    No one knowing we are so inexplicable

    Our real lives so incomprehensable

    We all wear our masks

    Because reality we cannot grasp

    So we put on a fake smile, as though it were true

    Knowing all the while, underneath we're confused

    Why not reach out to someone who cares

    Maybe because these days there's nobody there

    The world letting money take over our souls

    More like satan, our hearts less whole

    Why must we pay for a helping hand

    Let's come together and make a stand

    We are all in this world together

    Why not help and love one another?

    (C.) 2004 Harmony

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
