Ignorant World Open Your Eyes Poem by Kaitlin Schmidt

If the world chose to open its eyes,
What would its reaction be?
The unsightly things in the world go
Unnoticed for seeing them would change the image
Already placed upon it.
And changing the concrete thoughts
Would require work and add a new way of examining.
Two things the world has not practiced or be willing to attempt.
Instead, the world rotates as if
Nothing is wrong with blinders on the side and its eyes closed.
Opening them may cause destruction.
Destruction for the better.
