The Mad Parade

millions of faces pass me by like soft white milken ghost aimlessly they wander in gypsy vagabond night so enslaved lost in the mad parade of society just working in this rhetorical pantomime to pay debts of mortgage rent or fancy attire gold infused chariots that are just destine to rust and mansions that are destine to rot and this flesh turning to dust into this insane karmic merry go round here we go l.w. russell (c) 2013

Well written poem on the "merry go round" of this crazy, materialistic existence we call life. Indeed, one day we will all be dust, as our Spirits are lifted into Gods peace and love.
