Wake up
And see for yourselves,
The state of your pitiful lives.
Tally the score,
See how it reads,
A sorrowful tale,
Full of greed and need..
Rushing about to accumulate,
The world to be conquered,
A world to destroy.
Loves an illusion,
Gone in a hour.
Faith has been aborted.
Believe in yourselves,
They screech.
The rest of the universe
To my godhood will bow.
Trust is a vision
And joy never real.
The toy dolls are marching
To the sound of their fears.
Stop.
Take a look.
Is this what you wanted?
Is this how you care?

I agree that we can stick our heads into the sand and just come up gritty.
