Ego-Friendly

AuburnScribbler

They don’t know how,

but they’re alone,

their bio-greed,

gets me in zone,

he entered her,

to make my babe,

born into world,

that’s full of shade.

As it’s ego-friendly!

 

Desire shines,

to learn the lot,

but there's no choice,

asleep in cot,

parents, teachers,

make my spike,

preach to me,

all dislike.

As it’s ego-friendly!

 

As my degree,

lonely hangs,

my boss’ voice,

makes the clangs,

as I ignore,

what I did learn,

now I want,

to see them burn.

As it’s ego-friendly!

 

A change is quaint,

I like to fight,

let the row,

be normal plight,

give me a pen,

to slit life’s throat,

coz’ for my friend,

I’ll rig a vote.

As it’s ego-friendly!

 

Though, food and drink,

is what I need,

there is an urge,

to see them bleed,

so, at checkout,

I’ll pay, be gone,

for I would buy

a big fat bomb.

As it’s ego-friendly!

 

Still; better days,

for happy ghost,

of which I’ll haunt,

every host,

my silent smile,

will make you scream,

as I shriek,

all that’s unclean.

As I remain so ego-friendly!

  • Comment from author about the poem: I promised for a more positive poem, but with what is currently going on in the world; with the continuous pandemic that is called "human decision", we live in a prolonged phase that I would like to call "The Bidding Floor, For Another World War!" With this said, my mind can only reflect on such a sad and infuriating time, thus, I give to you this modern/not so modern familiar piece, that leaves a lot to be desired from our species, yet again! Instead of being "eco-friendly", the ever present measurement of pride, would mean that to be "Ego-Friendly" is the sordid order of the day! I again, will endeavour to find a light, in such a proud, repetitively displayed; manufactured darkness. The banner picture, sadly represents a hope that is forever drowning, by such a horrendous flood, that is remade by our species, generation to generation! I hope, at least, that you take some enjoyment in the wording of this poem, I will try to scribe in a more happy tone next post, and as always, please do stay safe everyone!

        All is great thank you dear poet, apart from the worries of our world, but we will get through it all. 💜

        Eco friendly is a most interesting concept in that if nature has created all in it then we are just a part of its chance and eco friendly is just a what we want to maintain of nature as we desire it. Nicely done

        • AuburnScribbler

          Thanks for the read sorenbarrett, and I wholeheartedly agree at your above definitions of both eco and ego-friendly.

          I am glad that you enjoyed reading this and I hope that all is well.

            Thanks for the read Andy and for your kind words, and yes, this world is in one hell of a state, a hellscape that has been proudly and erroneously created!

            I hope that all is well.
