Adam marries Eve
Now Adam can marry Steve
And
Eve marries Eve
"Reality"
We live to work
Instead of working to live
Seems to be contrived
As all our lives is on a down hill dive
Day to day trying to survive
I don't think that is called "Arrived"
"Reality"
Afraid to go to the theater
Might run into a hater
That will cause us to meet our creator
"Reality"
Sending our kids off to high school
And preschool
Not knowing if they will return
Is that what they were sent there to learn ??
"To never return"
It's a shame
But
"Reality"
The rich getting richer
The poor getting poorer
That we can ensure
Something we all will have to endure
Reality
War after war
Nation against nation
The fear of others reactions
Then sending our troops into action
Reality
Populations explode
Where water no longer flows
People leaving by the busloads
Watching our lands erode
Ah! the human coed
Reality
Global warming
All kinds of warnings
People misinforming
That should be informing
No reforming
Our world of
Reality!
"The world or the state of things as they actually exist"
