They're all out there
Living the dream
While everyone else
Lives in poverty

On vacation
Every week
While little kids can't
Have enough to eat

Waging wars against each other
Over stupid stuff
While poor people
Never have enough

They take everything for granted
Always have more than enough
While everyone else starves
But at least we have love

Maybe if we all just
Work together
Maybe if we all just
Show some love

Then all of us could
Have enough to eat
And we could all
Be living the dream

Well written.
And unfortunately, accurate in today's culture. It's hard to watch some people be wasteful or ungrateful or do nothing when there are people who would give anything and everything for an ounce of what they have.

I look forward to reading more of your poetry! :)
