Living In 2014

Living in a bubble the world is now suppressed,
looking through the window this place is too depressed.

An economy that has risen  we are all slaves to this,
the government is greedy they really do take the piss. 

Fighting for survival a game that's full of deceit.
shocked by the rise in prices I can't look at my receipt.  

Living in this crazy world it's full of unwanted danger,
it really comes to something when you no longer trust a stranger . 

Technology has taken over our kids are sucked right in, 
all in the name of money this is such a greedy sin. 

The recession has hit us hard and we aren't the one's to blame,
the banks are the people who should hold their heads in shame.

Living in a bubble the world has reached this state,
an awakening is needed before it's too late.

I totally agree, this world has got priorities all scrambled, I liked your poem, although the form is wrong, acrostic is when you use the first letter of each line to spell out something, this form would be couplet. you have wrote well, so keep writing :) may you be inspired by many cool thoughts
