Utopia Is

Utopia Is

A Poem by Cameron
"

This is the second of a set of three poems that I wrote for my literature portfolio in Honors English 11R in High School. The topic of the portfolio was The Human Condition, and the set of these describe human emotion and how humans interact with each oth

"

Utopia is everything for everyone

It is harmony and discord

It is peace and war

It is everything and nothing

It means happiness for some

At the expense of others?

 

I imagine peace and harmony

A world where everyone has all they want and need

With no need to work

Where everyone can enjoy music and fine culture

And live without pain

But without pain, pleasure cannot be appreciated

One person’s pleasure is another’s pain

Some want war…it is their only pacifier

Utopia is no place…indeed

It is Desire…incarnate
