So many mepole have too much, they just don't see it


Rich people of the world

You sit there on your high seat,
Looking down at us regular people

You have it all
Flatscreen tv (the biggest of them all),
The most raw stereo ever seen,
All you're money,
and you travel first class every time

You live the best possible life
You have power to do something
But somehow...
...You don't

Why?

Are you happy?
I mean REALY happy?

You have it all...
...Almost

We're maby regular people,
but atleast we have love.

All the poor people in the world
All the dying people, the word are to know

They are happy
Without flatscreen tv
Without the rawest stereo ever seen
Without money

All they have
Is love

And that is what we need to save the world

Methinks, love is really all we need. so to that end Im with you, but I dont really hate the rich, coz I figure it cant be all beds of roses for everyone, and sometimes its not their fault they're rich

I like these last two poems - it encourages me that youthful people are also angered by the inequalities that the people in control allow to exist - please don't lose your indignation and anger - keep writing WORDS ARE WEAPONS!!
