People
Surrounded with a pointless aim
To be the best of the best
Perfectionists remain the same
Dacing around in an ego fest
Keep pushing me to an edge
Below are the horrors
My feet reach the ledge
In this midless error
I walk a path no one dares venture
In its vengful ways
So much rage in this adventure
Is what my inner soul says
People remain people, that's the sad part
For they do not know any better
They always think of an end, not a start
Death is the end of thier letter
So many ideas in thier mind that never stop to sing
Some of them stupid in thier aspect
Holocaust, World Wars, Crusades are the thing
So why give people so much respect
Evil ones admire
The innocent put for life
In a cell, never for hire
Building up so much strife
Sure there is light, good people exist
Few in the many of society
But it seems as though we've dissmised
Them for the taste of viarety
People remain people, an ever living truth
So what's to exepct in the long run
C'mon, it dosen't take a slueth
Just look at our daughters and sons

We have multiplies our possessions, but reduced our values. We've learned how to make a living, but not a life."

I am speechless, this is great!!  All I can say is some never learn, and we must as individuals for ourselves and the world.  Very thought provoking

"People remain people, that's the sad part

words of wisdom...very nice work...and speaks to the problems of "society" today well...food for thought for sure...
take care, Janet Marie< !signature-->

 "...we were born before the wind...also younger than the sun...
and my heart you have won...as we sailed into the mystic...
I just want to rock your gypsy soul-
just like in the days of old...
and together we will float-into the mystic...
Van Morrison

one thing i think you said that is a really good point "sure there is light, good people exist."  we cant forget that ever.  no matter how many bad people there are there are always some good, and even great ones out there.  your poem is kinda an awakening to the hell that our world is becoming.  awesome!!
