Serious Thoughts Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Having come from Hong Kong, traveling towards Los Angeles,
seeing so many sights from above, most of them looking like
tiny little ant villages and cities.

Miniscule and barely negligible, like the reality of our
world and humanity in all truth, serious thoughts on what
we have done in life bring about shallowness and stupidity
we humans have come to think of as our lives.

When in reality, they are the lies and illusions a few people
have devised to keep us all in check so they can continue to
govern and keep control over us, therefore giving them power
at least for now.
