Freeing the Verse!

I was going to do a poem about missing someone, but I couldn't get past the first line.


Infinite Distraction

There is nothing we can't achieve
If we set our minds to it.

But instead we delight in lives,
And achievements,
Of others.

With an endless source of entertainment,
And laissez faire attitude towards ourselves,
We wonder how the world got the way it is?

But we continue to eat
With hopes of satiating
Our never ending appetite
