LOSING IT

Hey peeps 🙂 You’re about to read my first thoughts in a new category; FROM MY MIND, TO YOUR SCREEN. The post (Losing It), took a path of it’s own, not the path that I chose.

Your comments on this blog are highly appreciated. Drop a comment before you leave. 😉 Have a wonderful weekend! :*

LOSING IT

I see inspiration in everything now,
My pain seems just like a new subject to build upon.
Is this making the best use of my situation,
Or a severe case of blotting out reality?

The impaired man on the street needs my understanding.
I stand by, creating a story out of his misfortune.
Is this only seeking inspiration,
Or just plain insensitivity?

A plane crashed, a tanker spilled, lives are in danger;
‘This would make a great story’, I thought, camera at the ready.
Is this still sharing of information,
Or plain inhumanity?

A female child is in need of being just that; a child.
I seat in on a meeting and vote “Aye! Make her a bride.”
Is this performing duties to my country,
Or a plain caveman’s bestiality?

I flaunt my nudity and sexuality on national TV;
Maybe I’ll bag some good cash or become popular.
Is this also civilization,
Or full time irresponsibility?

Innocent lives are wasted like frogs run down by a trailer;
I stain my hands with their blood, saying it’s for a cause.
Is this fighting for my people’s right,
Or plain barbarity?

I have several sources of revenue but feast on one alone.
Not my headache man! I make enough to plunder in tons.
Am I a prudent administrator,
Or is this just plain stupidity?

People are in darkness and scramble for their feed.
My concern is of me, mine and packs of my lair.
Surely this is self preservation,
Or could it be selfishness at it’s peak?

You probably relate with my state of mind;
Perhaps you castigate my audacity.
Why, am I not the vessel you inhabit?
With heart beating and veins throbbing with same tenacity?

I am losing it! The world is losing it;
Even you, yes you! We’re all part of it. 😦
What’s that expression you’ve got,
Sheer incredulity?

There is a need for purging;
So much has been lost and so little time is left.
Let’s rise unanimously, each man wielding his talent as weapon.
Reviving our sense of rightness and integrity.
