Every human being
is a single piece.
Caught up in the world
of flesh and luxury.
Running blind in neon
never seeing their
spirit light.
Mind and heart
seldom touch,
living in a world
that preaches lust
for everything.
Condemning a
tearful heart to
fearful mind
enduring
in two pieces.

Nice thoughtful response to the contest prompt. The spirit takes second to the flesh all too often these days.What ever happened to values and morality?
Good write, best of luck in contest.

We are pieces of a whole as individuals we dont get it together i guess a part of growing in the society in which we are living. While the rich appear to be getting richer but in reality has that wealth brought them completeness ..... i doubt it.
Nicely penned with the depth of wisdom entices you reader to stop and think. Good luck in the contest.
