RE: Stop This Illusion-100 Days of Poetry Challenge: Day Sixty Four
I like poems that describe the scenes our lives are locked into, and the ridiculousness of it all. Yours is very good, and logically explains situations and actions by others that affect our lives.
It actually seems to me that people have a need for someone - a person, a government, a counselor - someone - to help them lead their lives and in essence, control their lives.
The unfortunate thing is that the majority of humans fit in this element which have the need to be controlled. It makes them feel safe and secure, them and their money. That's what really drives it. From the time the first man held out a handful of shiny rocks and another man wanted to have them, greed has negatively dominated every action and reaction, and the need to control those who want to be controlled. As long as there is greed in the world, there will be friction, wars and brutal control over the lives of others. Sorry I couldn't be more positive on the outcome we can't escape.
thank you @free-reign, my poem is not positive either and it is good to talk about this openly, it starts at such a young age people being forcefully told they can not survive or succeed with out being told what to do, throw in to that picture the education system and global advertising and the media and it's a controlled nation. I tend to write a lot about this is different ways. It's such a huge deception and yet so readily accepted, it's all those years of being trained to listen and not ask questions , to submit and conform.
I hear you friend.
