Such a sad world we live in Where having many followers Is the only way to fit in People you don't know Following your post As if they are friends Giving you a toast Strangers you'll never meet Following you As if they are true To you As a friend Who will follow you to the end To meet a death so sweet Followers mean nothing They are people behind a screen Whom you will never see Until you two shall meet And will you know One follower from another? As you are but strangers Possibly walking around each other The only good thing About having many followers Is the simple fact That you must be a leader Whether a good or bad one Is up to you And your truth

Politics is a group of "respected" adults **Arguing... Whining... Insulting each other** Like children in a park And yet...... We let them run our countries

Current politics
As the last few heartbeats ticked away The world stopped turning Everyone stood still Skyscrapers turned purple Purple waterfalls Purple skies Purple tears Across the globe People congregated dancing to the beats Of a fallen warrior And people hung their heads low Filled with sorrow Over the death of a legend Younger generations exposed to the music That shaped their parents A whole world stopped From the loss of a single man All around the world Everything stopped When all around the world People are being killed and tortured When all around the world Children are being left to die When all around the world People are dying on the streets When all around the world People are killing themselves What will it take for the whole world to stop Just because I died?
