The world is a Beautiful place if...

Contributed by lil_angel on Saturday, 20th September 2003 @ 03:05:00 AM in AEST
Topic: AngryPoetry



The world is a beautiful place
To live
If
You don’t mind not being safe after dark
Not being able to walk alone
If you’re female
If you don’t mind a few home invasions and a couple murders here and there.


The world is a beautiful place
To live
If
You don’t mind sending your child to a under funded,
over crowed school
Where gangs and drug dealers run the school.
And a mass shooter may enter at any time and
kill your precious angel

The world is a beautiful place to live
If
You don’t mind the soaring fuel prices
The threat against peace
and safety
The wide spread propaganda

The world is a beautiful place if you
Don’t mind
The wars, anger, murder, and violence
In the media
Which overshadows the man the plucked a
5-year-old girl
And her teddy from the burning fire
Or the teens that choose NOT to speed down the hill.

And through this all
God just stares down and laughs at us.

Pessimistic but, sadly, true. Oh well. The world sucks. People suck. Whatcha gonna do? Nice write that reminds me why I'm so bitter lately. Thanks, I just might have forgotten otherwise.

The world in which we live, should be better.
