Screwed up World

i was thinking about the world and why bad stuff happens, if god is here, then why does he create wars, destroy towns, make people kill? There is no answer to this.

My life seems screwed up

messed up

fucked up

I cant see straight

dizzy

up and down

so i see the world as it is

screwed up

messed up

fucked up

 

Broken people everywhere

homeless people dont know where

to go to see to be

to live to dream 

to love to hold

onto the world

its falling apart

all i see are

tsunamis and earth quakes

every one we've ever know will die

all i can do is just sit back and sigh

I've said it before

I'll say it again

this world is screwed up

messed up

fucked up

yet round and round it goes

"i was thinking about the world and why bad stuff happens, if god is here, then why does he create wars, destroy towns, make people kill? There is no answer to this." I like the diction used in this poem to describe the world, but that is just it, it is man's wars and man's obsessions that make the world wrong, not God. Every religion as I know teaches peace and love, but it is the extremists who make wars and cause the destruction of the earth and man not God. I totally feel this peace as to how the world is and I understand looking through eyes of clarity because I can understand my own faults. But I blame the great deceiver for the destruction of man and praise God for his salvation of man.
Great Write!

Messed up, fucked up is right & your last line says it all.. the world will go round & round ...well until the zealots blow us away.. But like Tommy says, you can find peace by clarifying who you really are. Once you do that, you can find some small way to change the world for the better. Poetry is a wonderful way to promote change and the 1st step is to know the truth ... Hope is on the horizon..
thanx for sharing your observations.

It's not God, It's people. Nice poem.

That is very true, ( Response to the review below ) Man is destroying this world, we have so much sin... it hurts to say it, but its true.
