The Realist Poem by Alexandra Motschmann

The world is driven by competitive self-interest
everybody wants to be the best
primarily concerned with the success
which leads and gives access
to a better and appropriate life
that’s for what we strife
To incline to literal truth and pragmatism
just a normal thinking no elitism
Matters have an inevitable existence
and everything got their own persistence
Facts and what we learnt from the past
these are the things which last
Rules and structures are a need
in this life to compete
Being reasonable that’s all
and it’s the final call.
