People Are Strange.

People Are Strange.

A Poem by Benjamin J Booth
"

For anyone who feels a bit lost in todays society, with people who dont care about one another and sub cultures that seem awful. But hey, its not all that bad right?

"
People are strange, 
Morrison once said. 
It captured my mind,
Ingrained in my head. 
People are strange,
We’re stuck in the midst, of
Poor grammar, worse music, 
A kiss like a fist. 
People are strange,
Ignorant, unfair.
Unconcerned with others,
Unwilling to care. 
People are strange,
Society may fall. 
The end might be near, but
Don’t lose faith in us all.

First half was still good, but I loved the last half was brilliant.
Great ending to.
I loved the rhyming, and the whole topic.
Yes its true allot of people aren't very nice these days, its a shame.
Though as you said don't loose faith in us all, there is a few good people out there, not many but a few.
Very inspiring and real write :)

A statement of clarity having seen to much or one of depravity having done to much, Morrison opened mental Door's with his lyrics as I see you enjoy doing as well. You have nice depth in your poem and great taste in music :~) well done!
