Help Me To Understand

by Ramzee Sagitarius - Not entered

Help me to understand.
Alone I can't comprehend.
The anger, the fear, the hostility.
Help me to understand.
I can't accept that this is humanity.
Alone I can't stand.  I am confused.
Standing in this vast technological wasteland.
We've become so hung up on $$
    that we can't see we're sacrificing our souls.
Help me to understand.

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this poem because as a seventeen year old 
college student I am beginning to see the real 
world and I just dont like or understand what I see.
How could I possibly have an optomistic outlook on life.
I question why I'm relly striving to achieve all of my goals
when the world just doesn't care.
