this is a crazy world we are living in right now. there's not enough being done as a collective whole to make it stronger. everyone just wants to be better than everyone. whether it's people, governments, nations, doesn't matter. it's all one big competition. the thing is, everyone's racing to lose. no one is sharing or cooperating, there's not enough working together for the greater cause (unlike the steemit community! 😉). yet everyone walks around like it's all good and things are just going to work themselves out. i hope more people realize before it's too late.

beautiful skies

we think
we are free

we walk around
like gods
on a spec of dust

like we are
larger than life
with our heads
in the clouds
and the world
belongs to us

the view from ignorance
is astonishing

above the chaos
above delusion
there are still
beautiful skies

where only angels
were meant to fly

source
we have lost grasp
of reason
this perceived reality
is a refracted vision
bending
right before our eyes

the moon
is gray
dark
and lonely
it is only alluring
from far

trapped in this cage
we created
like slaves
with our legs
shackled
to repercussion
