Decided to try my had at depressing poetry, it's very basic but it got some creativity out of my system
THE GOOD 'OLE DAYS
Once upon a time
when dreams were real
and wishes meant something
prayers worked
and people could drink salt water
people felt powerful just by doing the right thing
and every person was a master of communication
wars stopped when someone got hurt
and living things were all beautiful
They never through anyone overboard
and always used their turn signals
No one was left to their fate
and every baby had 10 fingers and 10 toes
They always let the best person for the job do the job
and the more they loved something the longer it lived
all children were innocent
and criminals had codes of honor
it only ever rained to water the crops
and the wind only ever blew to cool hot skin
people never ate other people
and coffee didn't stain your teeth
tattoos were painless and removable
and all mothers had children
every meal was romantic
and all men were warriors
there were no walls to separate lovers
and everyone dreamed
Once upon a time...but not now
