Dystopian Nightmares |
| Born under black skies, with no expectations, |
| We crawl through our paralyzing pantomime of life, |
| Awaiting resurrection, the great unwashed seethe, |
| In quiet desperation we accept our condition fatally, |
| Is this the present? |
| Can we call this life? |
| And for the future… utopian, dystopian, or death? |
| Thirty million voices, slogging through the undergrowth, |
| As islands in prosperity, they fuel it with their blood, |
| In total separation, they scavenge for their daily bread |
| Forgotten citizens, a class in themselves lost at sea, |
| Is this the present? |
| Can we call this life? |
| And for the future… utopian, dystopian, or death? |
| What have they worked for |
| …these dreams in the gutter, unspent? |
| Desire traded for dearth, |
| And Hope for destitution? |
| As eaters and eaten break bread, |
| They learn their trades in time, |
| But the teacher must be taught just as well, |
| And as such this tragedy unfolds… |
