#wasteful
in this country, we waste so much food in a country where people go to bed hungry if food doesn't sell then it gets thrown away perfectly good and edible food just wasted it could have been handed out to homeless people or people struggling to provide for their family they could've gotten many meals if only we didn't waste food poverty and homelessness would decrease it's so amazing what people can do when they have a full stomach the work they can accomplish

waste
In the land of the wasteful The flesh is bound to despairing Unmovable feasts All dreams dreamt away In the shallows of sleep As transient as blood Orange shades of clarity In the mind blindly seeking sun sincerity and kindnesses Not those in the land Of the wasted… Pain is as hollow and as full as The hearts of mannequins When already the broken who pose Now lets go, passed long ago Since childhood's end Not having known To recognize Or find oneself In the beauty of a world We played pretend. In the land of waiting For our sadnesses to end Waking up alone After all In the land of ungrateful men. (The kind have gone extinct once again. The End.)

In The Land of The Wasteful (revised)
SAYING WORDS JUST FOR FUN ISN’T VERY SMART SAVE YOUR WORDS FOR GOOD AND SPEAK FROM YOUR HEART DON’T SPEAK WHATEVER YOU THINK FOR YOU THINK FASTER THAN YOU TALK AND FEELINGS ARE HURT IN A BLINK BECAUSE YOU SAID WHAT YOU THOUGHT SOMETIMES HONESTY IS A GOOD THING DON’T THINK YOU SHOULD EVER LIE. BUT NOT BEING SO OUTSPOKEN IS SOMETIMES WHAT IS RIGHT. BUT I’M DONE TALKING NOW I NEED TO SAY NO MORE I WILL TAKE MY FINAL BOW AND WALK AWAY SAYING NO MORE

We talk
Cricket was started by the English, They have a lot of spare money, Too much more spare time, But India has to work, And cricket is the deterrent, It restricts our national growth, A trace of occupation by the English.

Cricket
I'm so **** sick and disgusted of writing every poem about you. It brings me close to hatred, but that is an emotion I don't believe In.

Distasteful
I'm not sure I was meant for this. I'm sure I existed far too late. It seems I came to be in the wrong time era, and I assure you the wrongest wrong place. I can hold my head high wherever, but records and dusty movies are my friends, they make me feel like I'm home at last; make me wish the time never ends, but it did and so forth, I was not meant for here. The people, too boastful, with so much less to fear. The relationships are wasteful, and different by the day. The love and optimism is fading out to grey. I almost pity the people, and I find their time more tragic, while the era I love was suppressed by casual bombs, the era I'm in has lost all their magic...

Wrong Place; Wrong Time
A bullet fired in one nanosecond effectively nullifies forty years.
