Passing Thoughts on the Liquidity of Life

Post by mtmynd » August 20th, 2020, 4:41 pm

Passing Thoughts on the Liquidity of Life
~or~
How our souls make broth for corporate soups.

If America suffocated itself
with its own pillow of comfort
would the rest of the world
dream any easier..?

Does wall street overstock
itself without preservatives
to prevent its moldy decay?

Is the most powerful job
in the world an American illusion
causing giggles of dismay in
backstreets of europe and the orient?

Does the American dream cause
nightmares for the losers that
cannot fathom the need for greed?

Do corporate voices instill
false senses of belief into
the dulled minds of consumers
to further their power-hungry agendas?

Does art truly reflect the times
of which they are portraying
thru mogul medias advertisements?

Are we not being led to
our own destiny, our own futures,
or is this too, an illusion
perpetrated by the money machine?

(any "yes" answers may bring freedom, however small and insignificant upon the world news tonight)

There is one thing we do need - LOVE.
Without that (4) letter word ,
like a flower we shrink up not knowing
the true reason of our purpose in living.

sadly the world many come to know is totally fabricated
to control the masses and to make billions for a few
you pose all the right questions, it's important to do whatever little we can
to raise this awareness...fortunately my 3 kids really get this...
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading
