Today's society

-F**k

 

I curse the day that this Earth was polluted

With son-of-a-b***h’s, heartless b******s; whatever name suits them

If I could go back in time, I would go back and stop today’s civilization from being made

We live in a world that undermines ones self confidence, strips them of identity, and forces them to fade.

 

-S**t

 

You have no idea how today’s society piss me the f**k off

I’ve watched too many of my close friends lose themselves and get lost

Lost in insults from the outside world, swimming in their own lack of personality,

Being drained of their pride, stripped from their own sense of rationality

 

-F**k, s**t

 

In this world, people don’t matter. It’s all about sex, money, cars,

Drugs, alcohol, partying, entertainment, or even, if were lucky, becoming a star

People just don’t care about hurting people’s feelings anymore,

I guess the ol’ “Treat others the way you would like to be treated” started to

Become a bore.

 

But to blame you, my friends, would just be a tragedy

That’s not to say that this hate will ever go away, though, this continuous agony

I think this was a good write...because things you have said are true...but it shouldn't...the world shouldn't be like this...I don't think that anyone should ever should have to go through today's society..so I feel bad when babies are born in this generation...thanks for sharing.

wow, great poem, true

Then a simple question: How do we plan to deal with it?

islands on the ocean. islands. there are some. we must first start with bridges and then work to expand them. The ocean is icomprehensibly huge, but one island at a time we can span it. fight the fight each one never give up.

so true...lol

This poem is my life inside-out. Its all about to much of one thing and not enough of the rest. Guys like me and girls like you get all entagled in the thorns of this hell-hole of a place that we live in. We got to stick together and do our best to fix it one corrupted person at a time. We got to do it for ourselves and our future. I loved this poem. It was truly amazing. Great write!

the world is separate..only realising that we are all connected and that our actions affect everyone will change things..but it takes one to start a concious shift of thoughts and believe me we are sheep we will follow...

Well, everybody pretty much summed up what i was going to say lol. But on the subject of the poem itself, todays society is messed up beyond belief, and like Coyote Poetry said, it starts with one person at a time.

I agree here with everything everybody has already said. This society really is messed up so messed up I can't believe it! I mean everybody needs to open up their eyes and take a look at what they've become! And your writing here hits it perfectly! A very enjoyable read although! :)
