Poem # 3
*please excuse all typos*
By:Thelly
What a world we live in
A place once unscathed,
now befuddled by human hands
A people once untouched by ambition,
now soiled by vanity and personal gain.
Looking around me now,
I feel extremely saddened
Saddened by the cruel realization,
that this is the world I live in.
*I wrote this poem two weeks ago. I can say the theme of this poem is strictly derived from all the thing I see happening to our economy, and to our people (as in everyone from the United States). I just felt that things in this country, are at a low. I think that the country I call home is being really mauled. The 'Mauling', in my opinion comes from lots of things.
I just hope that the overally happy moral of my country picks up. I want it to be a happy place. The land where people smile, and everyone can make something of themselves. This is the feeling I miss most. I hope we can get back to that feeling once more as a nation.
That's what I'm hoping for.
and as usual, please forgive all typos.
