Year 2000

by FireFly - Libra

Sickened by all that has come-
A world thrown in turmoil-
Never really knowing-
When to stop-
Its own "slings and arrows"-

The upheavals-
The uprisings-
The ethnic cleansing-
The skyscrapers rising-

Corporate sanity-
Wear rubber gloves-
Picking at the remains-
Telling the emaciated-
War ravaged-
The corporate ladder is here-
Climb it and never fear-

It’s millennium eclipse-
The almighty blitz-
The 2000’s coming-
But were all sitting back-
Watching the TV-
As the future plugs in-
Into Hollywood Glitz-
