A small poem about the materialistic views of the society.

One shot story poem.

A morbidly charming tale about a malleable boy who was too easily impressed upon, I wrote this when I first got my computer three years ago. I was fresh out of highschool, and still feeling mighty angsty about body image and self-worth: something we all feel from time to time.

As their discussion unfolds, the narrative subtly highlights an unborn child destined to become a beacon of goodwill and a significant figure in humanity's future. This story, rich in character interaction, explores the universal pursuit of happiness, illustrating how different generations find joy in their unique ways while underscoring the unifying desire for a meaningful life.

Poetry isn't a book Poetry isn't a art Poetry isn't a piece of inked paper Poetry is a person Molded and shaped with emotions Taught that lifes harsh events cannot harm us So don't just read poetry live it Its not someones work Its their life Show your appreciation Not your hate For everybody knows A poet is nothing without his work His readers and his words

This 20-part poem narrates a young woman's transformative journey of self-discovery, beginning with her departure from the familiar confines of city life into the depths of an ancient forest. Amidst nature's embrace, she confronts her fears, reflects on her past, and uncovers her authentic self. The forest serves as both a literal and metaphorical backdrop, symbolizing the complexities and mysteries of her inner world. Through solitude and introspection, she gains clarity, strength, and a renewed sense of purpose. Upon returning to society, she applies the wisdom acquired from her experiences, fostering genuine connections and inspiring others to embark on their own paths of self-realization. The poem emphasizes themes of personal growth, the cyclical nature of life, and the profound impact of nature on the human spirit. This narrative aligns with the themes explored in Carol Ann Duffy's "Little Red Cap," where the protagonist's venture into the forest signifies a journey of self-discovery and transformation. Additionally, the poem resonates with the sentiments expressed in "Finding Myself - A Poem About the Journey of Self Discovery," which delves into the search for truth and the courage to explore uncharted territories within oneself. Furthermore, the poem reflects the idea that poetry serves as a medium connecting individuals to their core, offering insight and courage to delve deep within and discover the depth of their thoughts.

Silently stood in the void of the dark world Where human greed no bounds With Helpless and feeble mind lay in the arms of materialist world With frail and flimsy I lay aside Without insight I pursue the course Lost in the shadows of cupidity world My entire potency washes away Could not take more steps in the darkness Am I lost to the darkness I ask myself? Do I boast strength to go further? Or else am I rest to die... You, me or the fabric which is potent The material is held high and single out Does love really exist in this world? What is the difference between love and fabric? Our world is encircled with bulky fabric wall Love is confiscate by this massive monster These monsters swallow and frightened me Why do I need to cruise under this monster ray? Helplessly and without wing I stand in the darkness And pray for a new world where love exist Take me away from this sculpt of hell Before I give up the ghost uncomplicatedly
