Today the world is fashionable.


Poem Artwork


Today the world is fashionable.

A fashionable world.

(The modern hell).

Girls are starving, pushing up themselves to death.

(With their extremely narrow legs).

Human brains are becoming smaller

(two sizes smaller).

They are going faster than their own rollers.

There are some children working just like slaves..

.nobody cares..

Virtue? Quietly has gone.

Love? is a virtual love.

Society? lost in lonely dirty thoughts..

Anybody looks for Prudence

through this outrageous days.

A monkey is looking to its face

into a mirror...Its face is turning red in shame..

Please, world... just stop and think!

Correct the rout and pray for peace...

i love the monkey turning red image, i picture that and then picture so many things going on that our ancestor's would have stood agape at, shaking their heads morosely. the balance is ever shifting, but, hopefully, it will swing back toward the light at some point. a wonderful, postmodern discourse regarding the process of deconstructing metanarrational institutions, in such a pop-culturish manner. great job!

"Postmodern World" is call for Justice and good sense.

I have enjoyed every line of it.

This poem, "Postmodern World" makes my heart boil.

Yes, Poet... I sing with You: "Please, world... just stop and think!"

I thank You for taking the road to Justice.

May You live to see a planet where children will receive proper INSTRUCTION to understand Justice, and play happily.

Maria, this is just so true of what is going on today. It's true in the highest sense of the word. The few feast on cavier, whilst the third world suffers and starves in hovels of ignorance. And the calamity of this weary life is that no one has found happiness in this pursuit of everything that is vain and shallow. I know I am gushing a bit here, but your poem is very powerful. Thankyou, Ron
