Difference

Difference So many people, so many lives, Who lives in the north, or south Others are in the east and west Many people live in a rich country Others in poor lands of the Earth Of course, some are not here nor there In every poor country, there is the wealth in every rich country, there is the destitution Good existence and poorness – opposites Social difference, hm, this is a big mistake Civilization, civilization? Hmm. Is it a reality Yes, this a true phenomenon, but not the … civilization Civilization can not exist without a good heart No, never. Just look around in the world. See? Here is a homeless, there are hungry children So obviously the difference; is infuriating; disgusting So many people are suffering – there are no bits of help Help? Just for money, for a lot, this is my experience Sometimes I am walking on the streets, and just watching Watching, the shop windows, the restaurants – this is west West, I came from East Central Europe, which is also rich People, do not even think about their poor fellows on Earth? Why? Egoism? Insensitivity? Selfishness?; Is it come from? From where? There is no answer, but have it, Somewhere Somewhere else, in the soul. Hmm. Here is the answer; I mean No composure, fear of loss, money-loving lifestyle; and rivalry But these are not all. Not. But the rest will be another poem.
