Treasons Reasons

Treason Reasons




                              Concreted cracks, abandoned train tracks,
                                unaffordable housing built like shacks.

                                    Unplanted seeds gardens of weed,
                               never having enough to satisfy the greed.

                                       Unseen view, is the sky blue?
                                  Goodwill bought unlaced white shoe.

                                 The frontyard seat on ol' bucket street,
                                  cool air doesn't help that kind of heat.

                                   Battles kill, unordinary run of the mill,
                                  another happy mailman undelivered bill.

                                  Where is our morality? What is our deal?
                                 living here in the now is such a reality kill...

Andrea Dietrich February 24, 2016 at 3:48 PM I think as time goes on, the world will become unbearably unfair as the line between the haves and have nots grows wider and wider. I enjoyed the read. Brian Davey February 24, 2016 at 6:12 PM It seems like everything that is real, important, or should matter gets degraded down the scale of importance as a whole to our entire population, I mean What The $%#@!

Daniel Turner February 24, 2016 at 6:46 AM You are so right my friend. Reality kill is a great way to express it. I really like this, Brian. Peace:) Brian Davey February 24, 2016 at 6:10 PM Thank you and peace to you too my friend
