Humanity.

Humanity, As a Whole

I dream of a world, where freedom is safe
I dream of a world, where my pants do not chafe
A Utopia for me, you, and the rest,
Where birds don’t use plastic, to build a nest

Where people can walk down the streets late at night,
And don’t have to worry about rape, or fright,
Where people have choices, to do what they want
Where people won’t argue, lie, and flaunt

We have nothing to flaunt, nothing to show
Our government lies, to bring in some dough
They’ll bring our society to an end,
Just like their forefather’s to follow a trend

What is so smart, about building our weapons,
Losing our freedoms, we’ll lose all of our pens,
Maybe our nation, less belligerent will be,
Less of a meaningless, travesty.

Who are they fooling, does anyone buy
Into their ideals they’ve shot to the sky
Humanity is hopeless, and no ones to blame
No one as a whole, but our society’s shame.

We put off our ignorance, on one another,
Every woman dreams of being a mother,
But as well all know, no dream is complete
Before they are lived, they become obsolete

Philosophers know this, and have for some time
They all sing their same songs, down to the rhyme
Their babble helps no one see light,
Future generations will poke fun out of spite.

What are we doing, what will we do
When we have machines, to tie our shoe
When we have given up our independence,
In hope of some greater, optimistic transcendence.

So when our time is tried and finished,
And all of our hopes are surely diminished
What will we say to those deceased,
To those whose morals were more than creased.

Nothing.
