Poetry dice entry week 25- a transforming world

in #poetrydice7 years ago (edited)

Since the dawn of modern man
There's been much to understand.
Some can see what others don't.
Most peeps sleep while few devote.
They'll never know the sweet flavor,
Of hard earned fruits from years of labour.

We started with an abacus,
Now AI thinks for us.
I wish more people could try to see
The rainbow's hiding misery.

There's two faces to every scene,
The in-your-face and the unseen.
Are you a sheep or a crafty fox?
Can you think outside the box?

Will you take a chance, roll the bones,
Or keep your crutch and join the drones?
Don't let the chance pass you by.
The truth's transformation will make you cry.
Tears of ignorance and of sorrow
For our bloody past, and untold tomorrow.
If we band together, take a stand,
We can change the fate of our land.

We need to bring back work ethic, revive the REAL Man,
Save the family unit, is it too hard to understand?
Men and women are equal, but they are not the same.
It's all about biology, including the human brain.
There are always exceptions, that I'll not denie,
But since we're all equal; who cares if she's a guy?
I'm going on a tangent, for that I apologise,
With this twisted world transforming right in front of our eyes,
The truth's all we got to battle the many lies.

  • A Real Man is chivalrous not a chauvinist, just to clarify.

Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed it!
