effort in job in life in all that must be,
fingers heavy, made of stone
this business of living, a hard bitten bone.

How drugged how lethargic to open one's eyes
to start a new day, to greet a sunrise
to go about the business of getting ahead
reports, statistics; heaviness dread.

The tapping the typing, does it mean anything?
Bytes entered and stored, cah-ching, cah-ching.
What are we doing? Where does this lead?
Souls screaming for meaning- tis no small thing. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 110 [topic] => 75 [informant] => invierno [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => anguished )

Twice as Hard

Topic: anguished

Twice as hard as it appears to be;
effort in job in life in all that must be,
fingers heavy, made of stone
this business of living, a hard bitten bone.

How drugged how lethargic to open one's eyes
to start a new day, to greet a sunrise
to go about the business of getting ahead
reports, statistics; heaviness dread.

The tapping the typing, does it mean anything?
Bytes entered and stored, cah-ching, cah-ching.
What are we doing? Where does this lead?
Souls screaming for meaning- tis no small thing.

Love your poem!
I totally agree on that.
And yeah I'll do what you say - go against their lies. Positivity is the only way against them ;) (your comment to my poem)

I hope you all luck in life!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
