Life is a beautiful pithole
life is a beautiful pithole.
you are right in there,
yelling others to help come out of it.
but its quite agreeable and beautiful that
They don't realize
that you are down inside the pithole
they only look at its descriptions and decorations
and some who admire its features
encourage one to go on with
the struggle
but once when the struggle ends
one will find how beautiful
the pithole actually is
About this poem
This poem represents how i see life. We live in a world that are in a perfect order and with a lot of policies that traps us. It forces me to act like a machine and to stay in the darkness of the pithole. I wish to come out of it but i have to be well right in there so i can continue to live. Thank you for freeing myself Through this contest so i can express my feelings and thoughts. (Please excuse my grammar since im a native korean but lived many years in sydney.)
