World At War Within

The sickness lies inside
Eating as it hides
Until I come undone
And only It presides

Changes never known
Slowly start to bleed
I scream into silence
As your foolish' breed

Twisted tails spun from Desecration
We're losing our nation
For ignorance has taken it's toll

We try to deny it
By lying about it
Power is as precious as gold

The wheels keep on turning
The coal keeps on burning
Yet no one is learning
To read between the lines

The nation is 'perfect'
But no one could expect
The treachery to which we're confined

Enormous contingencies
Lies made from companies
Consumers stay diseased
By the amusement of their brainwashing

By casual choice
We make rejoice
In the obesity of our children

While others still cry
As they watch others die
From illness and starvation.

great work.. very one sided.. but it's how you feel which is good.

I agree with what you say but others may not, that's why you get little feedback.

Perhaps a little more objectivity might lift it. More of your sorrowful feelings and less agression will make it shine.

Still I like it and I admire the strength of your convictions. Keep it up.

I like you poems, too. The world needs more revolutionaries;-)

Have you seem the film "Zeitgeist" on their website...from what you write you might find it interesting...but read what the critics have to say, too.
