PLATE GLASS PEOPLE

PLATE GLASS PEOPLE

A Poem by Eagle Cruagh

About little lives painted on glass.

PLATE GLASS PEOPLE

 

Some write of the other side of the looking glass

Some just write while they pass gas

While you jot down your thoughts

Of all the bad people

 

And your mistrust of humanity

Perhaps you could give a thought

To the children you wrought

Perhaps a smile for the growing child

 

Who will make of this old world

Just what his parent taught him

Our disgust and fear of humanity

Will in turn disgust and sicken Little Jim

 

If some mad and love sick old fool

While crying in his beer makes you his tool

Remember to have a little dignity

Turn away in silence

That you not render compliance

 

Transparent people must tell the world

But their confessions we don`t need

Their lives are painted on plate glass

We look right through to the other side

Soooooooo true!!! there seems to be more bad things in the world than not, there is no doubt about it. People look at the world differently than others, some see what they want to see, while others see the big piture and look around them with eyes wide open. What i believe in personally is to make the best of the bad things and look on the bright side :) this is a very good write, its so honest, and its a poem alot of people can relate to!
