Virtual reality


People homeless – no way but out.
People suffering – even in front of you
as you walk past.
People dying of virulent type disease,
called in the West, syndrome or such,
maybe depression
that does come with one almighty rush.

I do not think much past reality at best
and even that is lumbered
by ownership of the one percent.
So, on the web at night or day
I circumnavigate the rest,
the news of their day.
And what I find is comparison
to know if I am being led
by some almighty force
called the Propaganda Drone.

You cannot look beside or beyond
before, too late,
it is you who you have to face.
Then in comes a desperate state,
for in reality you are to think it all too hard
and back to sleep you stay
in virtual reality each night or day, or both.
