The
man on the hill,
The
man in economic mountains,
The
man on the street,
Became
bitter enemies
A
new revolution
Spreading
throughout the world
Occupying
the nation
As
people protested against failing government and corruption.
Greece
tumbled
From
economic prosperity,
The
Union of Europe
Scrambled
to their aid.
Arabs
had their spring.
The
Middle East erupted with fire
To
deal with their bullying dictators.
The
Spring turned to Fall
Then
Winter
Back
to spring.
Iran
threatened Israel
Promising
possible nuclear annihilation.
As
the world continued to burn and change
America
looked over the rift of a new election.
Politicians
preached their promises to people
Saying
they will change.
People
went “Psh”
As
they play their iPhony games
Being
sucked into a Facebook reality.
The
election’s rift
Is
where the future will be.
No
change from said politicians
Nothing
from violence and bloodshed.
Slavery
on the chocolate Ivory Coast
While
men kill and kidnap in Africa.
Nothing
new.
Everything’s
the same
At
least the technology’s shiny.
At
least a retweet showed you care.
