Babylon

Confused?

I looked at the world,

And it is Babylon.

 

I looked at the Government,

And it is Babylon.

 

I went to school,

And learned Babylon.

 

I looked out my window

And saw Babylon.

 

Then I searched my own mind

And found only Babylon.

 

Babylon-confusion.

 

“Come out of her, my people…”

Straight to the point - yet so powerful. Sometimes a poem really doesn't need to be full of detail even though I love detail.
In the case of "Babylon", I think it wouldn't be that powerful if it were more detailed. It's really good. I really appreciated reading this.
