The Oddest Show

25 Novembre 2018Disclaimer: this is not intended for small small minded people.
If our society was a movie
it would be probably stuck on the same scene over and over
-with different special effects-
but still static.
Each character a great complainer,
who does nothing to change what makes him upset.
You know,
it is easier.
No stress, fights or debates,
he just has to show other people how furious he is.
There are also some background actors
who speak to exhibit their great vocabulary or their new outfit.
That was harsh
but in most cases it is true
and it drives me crazy.
My perception of reality is meant to be inspiringly critic
because I know you,we
can do better than this.
As a teenager I get mad when my peers say
they don’t stick up for an idea, a concept, a problem
because they don’t have any personal interest in it;
every time I hear someone complaining about a situation
such as our government or a silly misunderstanding,
I feel like screaming out that
THEY CAN DO SOMETHING TO CHANGE
and if they keep writing the endless list of the things they dislike
none of them will suddenly fade away unfortunately.
As the decision of getting informed and getting out there to prove you and what you believe in matter
is up to you and your conscience,
your age,your reddit or your nationality are not important factors.
The cynics might have the loudest voices
but I swear they’ll accomplish the least.
Words save the world in most cases,
but sometimes they should just be hidden in sentences
we won’t hear.
If you have an ideal to stick up for
do it!
Or you’ll just be then times guiltier than who doesn’t have anything to say.
And when you meet yourself
hope you’ll have a raspy voice
to prove you shouted enough
to be listened.
It may just be an utopian dream,
at least I did something to make it come true,
and obviously I love pushing you.

I totally share your thoughts and I just would like to remember the words of a great man: “You are not only responsible for what you say, but also for what you do not say” (M.L.King)
There are so many things which happen in our world which are not right, but pass unspoken before our eyes. How different could the world be if, instead of being silent, we spoke out and did something to change it.
