Time Eater

I wonder what it would be like,
If we all were given the real time in life,
The time that gets eaten away,
By all the monsters in lives that consume our days,
To not experience life in a rhythm dance,
But eats your family from existence,
To houses where parents barely know their children,
Not from desire but working condition,
From luxuries of mentality we get toys,
But can barely speak to each other through the noise,
A bubble forms in everyday action,
The ideas of others come from micro interaction,

For how many times do you see someone and say,
I know exactly what he does in his daze,
I see how they like to look,
So I can determine what choices they took,
Yet at the end you never see inside,
The stereotypes and lies of mind,
And people are then walking fried,
By a program that holds them under a narrative lie,
Never knowing what their friends really think,
Never see their loved ones enough pushed to brink,
Then acting as those who fall apart,
Aren’t the by-product of our cruel hearts?

For if we never care unless we receive,
Then benevolence is a mirage the naive conceived,
To act into a world that holds bastards to sit,
On top of mountains in houses of millions that don’t fit,
And the regular people are looking at the new privileged kings,
Like Sauron they sit controlling life by rings,
That look more like titles on a name tag,
A chain of being brought by ignoring rags,
And even if we feel compassion it gets abashed,
By the inadequate frame of life in stash,
To hordes of gold the legends of dragons sold,
That the heroes can no longer can challenge them in bold,
Then shall the world in hindsight find us great,
Or a stepping stone like so many dates,
We like to think the changes are so crazy,
Yet they might become the common face of a future more due our term lazy,
Then we would only be the origin for great thought,
But never achieving what we sought,
Just another time to be running regular similar lives,
Great things with time look like small strides…
