Lee Marvin Sunglasses

We are all Blinded by the light!

Lee Marvin Sunglasses

 

Who are we?

With our local sports teams and favorite color?

We are the ones blinded by the

Bright light- ambition

It fries our pupils

Reaching the back of our skulls

Who are we with our lottery tickets?

And abs rollers?

Trying to be rich and appealing

We want it all

We are blinded by the light

Called vanity

Who are we?

With our pre kindergarten and Japanese instructed

Four years olds

Educating- the very youth that will

Destroy us

They will re open the ovens and

Burn us all

They will see the savages whom raised them

And wipe them from the face of the semi livable planet Earth

We are the ones blinded by the light

Of arrogance

It melts our retnas into pools of plasma

Who are we?

With our fast food chains

Reality TV

Our popularity contest president?

We judge all those

Who attempt greatness?

Feed them to the lions called

The general public

We laugh as they cry

As they walk back to their 5 star hotel

Rooms

Ready to end it all

We are blinded by the light

The light of Lucifer

The lord of light

I pray every night for sunglasses

The tough ones

The ones lee Marvin used to wear.

"We are the ones blinded by the
Bright light- ambition

Reaching the back of our skulls"

I like the logic of this poem. The ending was perfect.
"They will see the savages whom raised them
And wipe them from the face of the semi livable planet Earth"
You brought many strong points out in this poem which are true and one day we must explain why we allow our world to lose control and go to hell. Thank you for your powerful poetry.
