Replying to a comment on:

The state of things... (Free verse) by hobojo

Greed Leads to Manipulation We see it in the marketplace We can trace it through policy We vote for morals We get something else Why do we allow a system To rule When we don't understand it Some of us trust it But we all know its corrupt We are blinded by our toys Others are complacent Enough of us can change it But we don't Some of us can lead But we don't It will take something tragic To awaken the needed force It will take more than I have alone It will require sacrifice Most are not willing

Most are not willing...reality in words...wonderful
