Array ( [sid] => 9185 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => The World [time] => 2002-12-24 17:30:00 [hometext] => If you're looking for someone who's praising the way the world works then I suggest that you do not read this poem....for those of you who could care less here goes..... [bodytext] => Sitting here thinking
I've come to realize
That the world simply sucks
With all the stereotypes
And with all it's doubts
The world isn't what it used to be
I think of those past times
Not so long ago
When we weren't plagued by memories
Of death and circumstance
We stood for something
We knew what we needed
Now all we know is what we want
So conceited we are
So developed and artificial
But remember it isn't our fault
The world simply sucks
Society bothers me
It's plans of social classes
It's ways to manipulate us
It's ways to create perfection
And sitting here I've come to realize
The world simply sucks
Not because we want it to
But because it knows no other course
It knows no other action
It just thrives on what we give it
So independent we are
That it doesn't bother us
We push it aside
We leave it on the shelf
But sitting here I've come to realize
The world simply sucks

It does i agree thrive on what we give it...i think the way you worded this poem about The World is beautiful, i mean it's all true...it's what the world has actually become, and you know there are so many blind people in the world that they are the ones who just push it all aside.....i don't really think people stop to take a look at what's really going on in the world anymore......it's as though everyone is blinded by society.....i dont know....it's a beautifully written write tho and it's one i enjoyed reading, thanks for sharing this one among all your other poetry.....i shall continue to read more....as your poetry captures me very deeply...every single time...
