its an age old saying, but nothings going to change the world
all we can do
is anything to better ourselves
one person at a time.
a hybrid car
won't save this planet
a rally in the streets
won't make a better society
a punk rock song
isn't going to change anything
but you.
a good job, big house, and happy family
won't stop you from dying
poverty, homelessness, and a greedy government
won't stop you from living.

Re: its an age old saying, but nothings going to change the world
a d ee p[ly] (meditative)
NoThing
would indeed 'change the world'....
but tis unmarketable,unprofitable,unprophetable,
unsellable,
& Blasphemy to God+Jesus'Kapitalist Advancement of EconomicSystem Royalty exploiting the egos of middleclass to keep Poverty/Suffering&material Delusion as the basis of of Our contrived Reality/Truth/& IBelievisms................
there....i'm glad wee've cleared that up*
-I like this poom-
*(PS)The Government is not greedy --- The FreeEnterprise Industries' Profit-Motives keep a tight, but camouflaged grip on any-thing even remotely related to The Government's Testickles & Teateries, in 'order' to keep the circle of material greed
as the 'only' option. "It's HardWired in Us"... as if it was part of God'sPlan that it be "in Our DNA"
now eye'm even gladder wee've clarified sofcknMuch of What-It-Is, that it's time to go empty my silly old bladder.....spread TheWord!!

Lacey, this is so profound. I wish I had a cooler word but it really resonates so well in the psyche. And the fact that you don't need volumes of words to get your point across is a testament to your writing skill. The last two stanzas provide an awesome contrast. Terrific work !

RIGHT on,Lacey, I think the only change is from within...this poem makes me think of that story of the tiny little bird, one day a nut falls on his head and he starts the rumor that the world will fall down....do you know that story?
Just blabbing
