Tear the Whole World Down

Tear the Whole World Down

A Poem by Curtis Shannon
"

Tear it all down.

"
Smiles all around,
Let's toast a drink or two.
Ignorant faces, lipstick-stained collars,
Billions thinking they're few.

The world will die alone.

Sorrow's tears rampant through the streets,
I am lost, never to be found.
Shut up, why won't you listen to what I'm saying?
"Tear the whole world down."

at this point, a good idea...let's burn it down and start all over...a few together would have the strength of billions...otherwise, the world will surely die alone.

impactful piece here.
