~~~
The world is just one big stage
Characters acting out lines
Going through the motions
A sign of the times

Beliefs washed away
What ever feels good goes
We are all lost in the wind
As the scenery shows

Backdrops tell the story
How far off track we’ve become
As we sit here doing nothing
As if we were numb

New acts start and sets change
As we sit calmly in our chair
Waiting for the end
Yet it’s nothing that we fear

I try with all my heart
I try with all my might
To light a fire under people
Yet there is no end in sight

Are we just too far gone?
Hasn’t the play run its course?
How can we stand here doing nothing?
With no sense of remorse?

Dear God in the heavens
Send us something to wake us up
We sit here too relax
Drinking coffee from a cup

~~~
The world is just one big stage
Characters acting out lines

How far off track we’ve become
As we sit here doing nothing

To light a fire under people
Yet there is no end in sight

With no sense of remorse?

Dear God in the heavens
Send us something to wake us up
We sit here too relax

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. Â©
