The world

This world is but a thrift market of emotions.
A variety store, hearts' work shop, open twenty four seven!
No other planet in the universe has opened business,
for our emotional requisitions
So we can pop by and replenish with brand new fixes.
All the sentiments on earth have gone through a wringer by billions

Have shoulders to cry on, comforting hugs, kisses of passion,
For those who have the luck of love and loved ones.
The sarcastic sneers, foolish wisdom and plenty of crocodile tears
Treats with no empathy in the core
Could clog an artery.... for stress has qualities of a killer.
They aren't t the real deal when support and comfort you are craving for.

'Buy now and regret later' the house of cards' emphasizes
When He is in charge of dispenser; depression and heartache -three for one,
ridicule and nitpicking are also on the give away list,
Making you run for the exit with an empty cart!

[Ranger Kessel]

What a wonderful ride. Journey. You have painted painted words onto a tapestry. And created beauty. Thanks for the read

[Mrudula Rani]

Thank you for your encouraging review. I appreciate it very much.

[Jimmy Yetts]

Indeed, the world can often only be described as a sorry place--and life is, for the most part, incredibly sad.
A meaningful piece of work, M!

[Mrudula Rani]

Thank you JY, I appreciate your review.

[Paul Bell]

The world definitely lives on 24/7 now.
Sadly people try and do the same.
Burnt out at thirty. Popping pills at twenty to get you through the week.
Heart attacks, strokes, suicide.
Then you get to the kids.

[Mrudula Rani]

You painted the world in all its naked truth!

A fascianting adventure into your amazingly colourful thoughts, Mrudula - hopefully the offers are worthy of your fine and analytical mind.

'No other planet in the universe has opened business - or our emotional requisitions ' that is unless you come from Mars or Venus!

[Mrudula Rani]

No advertisements of business so far from any other planets for us to shop there! Thank you Emmajoy for your lovely visit.

[CD Campbell]

I think your metaphors are pretty straight forward. It seems that this is not the only market in town, though you have to buy at this one for a long time before you can ever shop at the new one and no one knows what kind of products the new one has. Your poem is a very witty creation. I just wish the market had better deals. CD

[Mrudula Rani]

Your review is beautifully encouraging. I am a little worried about this new market that you are talking about, seems like the trip might takes us out of this world.
