A Poem by Ben

There are so many people, yet people is what people want
I know the bars are great, heating and ac, thumbs up
I like technology, hope I transition not get sucked into it though
I'm not addicted to the poisonous gasses and particular architectural infrastructural shapes of it though

Because I have these visions of a million years of constant night landscapes
Castles, torches, night walls, landscapes sprawling strewn cascaded across the rolling hills are the Bon fires and the night anthems long winters warm soups and fur or wool blankets consisted forever and infinite
Was sustainable in perpetuity.  I believe and hope for the futures sake
That Henry fords idea will be replaced
That infrastructure will change,
Grumble and groan as it may

Of course I've seen the highest roofs, as they always have
Of course I see the wonders, at the price of wonder
But isn't it, closest to the heart, not the same stage and the same props
From the king to the alms collector, we are all looking around at the same thing

How do we all seem so f*****g blind though
What if we attach our feet to thin magnets then have powerful magnets under prexy glass
And grab a hold of a thing that looks like a bar bell and roll
Why can't we suspend ourselves in 5 lb plastic bubbles and be dry cleaning belt shuffled around
A 5lb vehicle compared to a 2000 lb one

Why not create massive engines, increase ten fold science education and science spending
To maximize and best till natural energies
Why not pre-emptively build giant environment saving machines
Super cranes and welders, clean up units and under-water sement vessels to plug the sea?

How are we so f*****g blind indeed... there are so many ways that we can better this world and ourselves if only we would open our minds and find the answers. Also be willing to take the time and effort to apply them. This world needs a wake up call and your capture this need well in your poem. Very well written. Loved it.
