Head full of chaos


wealth
fame
beauty
success
fashion
image.
why do we dwell so much
on things
we are conditioned to think
bring us happiness.
this society 
is blind
to see that
living with just essentials
would bring people
out of their misery
and
selfish
attitudes.
how could we let 
hunger
thirst
and disease
thrive in countries
families
suffer
while the rest of the prosperous
world
is worrying about
the latest greatest
cell phone.
what is a cell phone?
do they even know?
they ask questions like
will there be enough to
eat tonight
will my child make it 
another 
day
where will we be able
to stay warm
tonight.
we should be
embarrassed
for this absurd
lifestyle
we live.
I cant 
comprehend
how we can let this
happen
