POEM - 'The Higher You Go The More You Bounce' - By Helen Leigh
(from - Life and Lessons Poetry By Helen Leigh)
Get
down on the ground,
The
higher you go,
The
more you bounce.
Make
a superfluous fascade of lust,
Throw
your neighbour under the bus
Ignore
their pain,
Focus
on what you can gain.
What
do you think will come of this?
When
all is lost that you dismiss,
And
when you look it cant be found,
Because
the higher you go,
The
more you bounce.
People
are ignoring,
objectifying
and warring,
being
completely boring,
Numbing
the senses in senselss exploring.
As
long as you look good that's all that matters,
People
are only good for climbing ladders,
keep
getting fatter on flatterers,
Because
with every pound,
The
higher you go,
The
more you bounce.
Get
down on the ground,
What
goes around doesn't make a sound,
if
you don't go up,
your
soul will be found.
Because
the higher you go,
The
more you bounce.
