lemons 🍋 - a poetry book [✔completed]

I Hear banging against the wall,
Shouting across the hall,
He's telling her she's not good enough and that she's a whore,
Tears rolling down her plastic face,
But it's okay, It's the new age,
If you feel insecure ,
A robot can fill your heart with silicon and things impure,
Botox on a child so young an age,
The world is like make-up on people with no face,
This new world is so dull, so sick,
We look at magazines from 1956,
And wonder where it all went wrong?
Was it the Kardashians and their "Lip-Kits,"
Or people wanting to be thin as sticks?
But that was 983 years ago now,
Yet we still live on the ground,
3 year olds wanting to be gay,
Dying their hair green, pink and yellow-but hey...?
If we're all plastic like dolls,
Where did Barbie go?
Don't worry, just ask the six year olds,
They're wearing designer bra's on silicon breasts,
At least the food we eat isn't as plastic,
Just GMO here, infused with edible plastic there...
Where did Government go?
WHERE DID RELIGION GO?
That all died out when they introduced Mr. Maddix,
He's your personalised robot who'll give you a lift,
Or even a Tonic and Gin,
This is the new age;
And AIDS isn't the pandemic,
It's our selfishness and greed that is,
There are no obese people when everyone has lypo-suction,
It's the year 3023, and yet no body can see,
We have let the Rhinos, Birds, Pandas and everything to extinct,
All we need is our Puppies to be pink,
But who cares about the food chain when Earth is covered in Metals and Plastics,
And when the Earth is as hollow as our hearts,
There's no global warming,
And the Ice Caps aren't melting,
When all we're drinking is beer and wine,
Drowning in our own lust, instead of crime,
Doesn't it make you want to cry,
That Humanity has died...?
