Taking the World Hostage

I wrote this some day when I was really pissed off.



I want to take this world hostage,
Take it by the arm like an abhorrent toddler throwing a fit
And say cool it
Knock it off
This ain't the way to get what you want
You want change?
Well so do I!
So let's change!
I have some demands before I release this world though
That every person is able to eat food each day in quantity
That food corporations are charged with crimes against humanity for putting poison in addictive "snacks"
So that the Pharmaceutical companies can make money off disease
That every country around the world is banned from having weapons and they're military is disbanded
I want everyone to have free education, health care, dental care, eye care, and every other care necessary for them to live stress free and happy
I want this world to shine and each person to be able to shine with it
In a world free of wants, where every need is met, and every comfort is available, I really do think we could.
Money is the heart of darkness
And machines can replace mundane tasks in a world where we can be free to explore the things which need exploration
Where no money lives
Or credit
I want to take this world hostage,
Because this world sucks
And we all know it
But whats really worse is we all know it and collectively do nothing
Where are the protests? Where are the rally's?
We point our fingers at those who say change
And say, "She's a dreamer, or he's a fanatic, or those people are weird."
Is it that weird to want all human kind to be free?
To be happy, healthy and live with dignity?
To be raised color blind and culture blind?
I think you people who say, "She's a dreamer, or he's a fanatic, or those people are weird."
Are fucking crazy
But I can't prove that
Like I can't prove a lot of things
And if I am a dreamer, or a fanatic, or weird, I'd rather be that then a shepherd-less sheep
Keeping the other sheep in line with "social norms"
I took this world hostage
But no one cared
So after a moment I let it go
My revolution starts from within I guess
So what about yours?
