Hello dear child Are you new in this world? Don't be scared I'm glad you joined So I can toy with your mind And mess up your world
To the left you'll find the history Of bombs, suicides and death In the attacks with the word terror Look there and you'll see why You'll be shocked by the flames The tears, the pain and the loss You'll be crying and wondering Why does this happen?
To the right you'll find the starving The sick, the homeless, the dead The sick and elderly, the ill The ones who are mentally scarred They keep crying out for help They keep asking for money And begging for food and drink I would be kind and give them A little money and a bite to eat
Have you heard of the rich? Boy you’ll be surprised They are government Gentlemen, ladies, leaders War starters, war lovers, Positions and debaters Some are greedy, some are wise But which will you be?
Speaking of which, who are you? A fighter? An artist? A poet? A dancer? An acrobat? A dreamer? A song writer? A reader? A writer? Who are you? In this world of black and white And a slight hint of grey That’s for me to know And for you to find out
Inspired after responding to a comment on my latest poem. I don't know why but I'm laughing at it wondering what I was thinking You know who you are
