John's the head of a company who deals death,
his buyers puff away, then struggle for breath.
What he's really doing to people is killing,
blind to it John sits in his office chilling.
He never sees the faces of those who've died,
He only sees the profits, from those who've buyed.
On tv, john watches a starving child who'll soon die
he readjusts his fat ass and thinks: "better him than I"
This is amazing, buyed isn't a word though I don't think hahah. The concept makes you really take in how the world is and how much empathy people lack. If only people started to give a shit about society, that would be the day.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, buyed isn't a word, but it rhymed so whatever.
ReplyDeletePeople need to care about more than just their society, People need to care about each other. Countries and politicians seem to think the brotherhood ends at their borders, well newsflash people: We're all on the same planet! And we're all the same species!
Instead of looking at China (for example) as something foreign and far away, we should be looking at them as our brothers in China, or as the Chinese portion of the world. They aren't something that exists outside of us, they're something that lives in here with us.
once again you have touched upon a vital problem in our society. go you. it was a good poem though and despite its somber message it made me smile :)
ReplyDeleteThis is so good, whoa, I'm pretty much speechless. And yeah, I don't think buyed is a word either. :P
ReplyDeletei like buyed. keep it.
