the little troubles in life

if only I can stop thinking about it,
maybe that will solve the problem.

Has anyone ever stopped,
and think about how society functions?

think about how,

people can pay you thousands,
when you or your assets get destroyed.
but stare funnily at you,
when you ask for a little cash to eat a meal.

we need a license to do anything,
from driving to diving,
but when it comes to really dangerous stunts
like bungee jumping or cliff-diving,
suddenly everything goes.



where luxury food can be so expensive,
that it can easily cost up to 100 times a normal meal.
when the ingredients used are mainly similar,
and it fills you up just the same.

a place
where we constantly say money does not equate happiness,
but we see pure bliss on the winners of the lottery.

a time,
where wearing less in public is recommended,
but wearing nothing is critisized.

a civilisation,
where the exact same type of product,
can cost vastly different prices,
depending on your location.

a society,
where image is king,
and quality takes a back seat.

i think,
we've all gone crazy.

or maybe,
i'm the only one who has.
