A poem/spoken word about some of the direction the society of today has taken. Of it is not that black and white, - but parts of the society are exactly like this. With some nuances in between
Throwing rocks at the flowers
Treating ourselves
With the sweetest candy
The sweetest candy man can offer
While driving down the fast lane
Aiming for the gaming in the game
Throwing the dice
Chasing the runners
Running for something
For something out there
Not here
Not in our pocket
Running for money
Running for fame
Running down the fast lane
Getting blinded
- Oh sweet blindfold!
Seduce me with your golden hands
I have made you my God
I have made you my servant
You give me a rush
I give you my money
My soul and my everything
I listen to your words
Uncritically
I follow the herds
I give them my all
I give them my soul
I walk down the streets
In my high heels
I throw rocks at the flowers
I throw oil on the fire
I dance around the flames
I speak of lust and temptation
I am the girl walking
Running
Chasing
After the things we all think we want
I dress in the shortest dress
I posses powers that you do not wish to see
I wear the highest heels
The longest
Sharpest
Nails
I am the girl you see on the street
Sometimes drunk on a Friday night
I am the girl as a girl should be
According to society
of today
The shorter the skirt
The higher the heels
The fuller the lips
The bigger the breasts
The perfect girl in today' s society
Plastic fantastic
Temptress of the street
The shorter the skirt
The higher the heels
- The perfect girl in today' s society
