People
they smile more
these days and
they don't seem to notice
for the past was much filled with
bloodshed
and
misery
hunger and famine
with the darkest
and coldest
of winters
people once shivered naked
in the snow
and today we control
the
elements
of mother nature
in our home
bandits once littered the dusty roads and
vultures flew always nearby knowing the outcome of
the days events
sure, people still ponder on their next meal
but
there are more fatties than there used to be
