Analysis of Our nation is educated in manipulation.
Our nation is educated in manipulation.
What is this creation that has me overthinking I can't help but feel anxious?
Models are subject to augmentation, we lack love and communication.
The problems we face are more than our population.
We face war, death, and poverty, but we cry over heartache.
We are inhumane, what have we done to Ukraine.
It's clear we are puppets used as a demonstration.
We value education in hopes to celebrate our children's graduation.
We live in a perpetual cycle, a simulation.
I can't breathe squeezed by societal generalization.
I have died by suffocation.
Death.
What more is left?
Unchained by society where is stress?
We've reached enlightenment
But why must we be dead?
When we die, are we stuck in our heads,
Or do we live to try again?
I can't contain my thoughts of the afterlife,
I just wish to know what is to remain.
I just wish to be born without chains.

About this poem
This is my poem about our society and the manipulation we have in our society through multiple societal constructs this directly talks about the cruelty of today and how we haven't changed from being inhumane. We say we've changed but sadly parts of this world are still hungry for power when people are dying of hunger.
