the misfortune of what we have created

the words are clambering in my head
like little monsters
reaching out, taking and grabbing and greedy
so much to hide and so little to show for it
like how nothing makes sense anymore
thinking in the abstract isn’t good for a linear world
it isn’t enough that money is everything
all our lives are spent satisfying someone else’s desires
we made it that way
if all we do is serve others
and no one seems to get anything out of it
then what are we really doing?

    I plan to revise this poem: please leave constructive criticism!

    This poem really made me think. Although it confused me at times... I really loved the questions hidden throughout the poem. I'm glad you used un-mediocre vocabulary- but i feel pretty how should i say, un-smart when i don't know what linear means xD

    anyway.... great job

    I love this part:
