PROMPT #09 - IMAGINE

HARD TO IMAGINE

A weary world seeks euphoria
in any way possible.
Some turn to God, some to drugs.
Some turn their frustrations inward,
while others show outward resentments
through senseless acts of violence.
What would it be like
to never know fear, never feel ill,
never worry about your next meal?
But that’s hard to imagine
in a world of constant upheaval,
when those who choose the course
don’t live in the day-to-day.
