ANOTHER WORLD (DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS)

 

One planet,
But you come from another world,
It`s not only the language you speak,
Read and write…
But the dimension(s) you give
From your feet to your top….

So many kilometers gets me
Apart from you…
But you are so much far away
From me…
Since it’ not precise
The miles  you live…….

Your laws are just common
For you,
Yet all the saves we need
To write down…

And the weight between us
Is not the some measure:
Our kg is lighter than
Your heavier unfairly pounds…
(Unconsciously you serve the queen…)

Almost the world see
Itself at the same size:
Why just your view is democratic?
Why just our views are autocratic?

That`s the globalization,
However you just understand us talking
Your own language,
So you say you are more liberal
And open than the rest of the people,
Are not you?

You don’t give up
To make thy land the true world….
Even the precise cm,
You value more your inches…
To nails in your feet…

Even the weather is not same:
Your mother likes Kelvin;
Yourself, Fahrenheit;
While the world sees it in Celsius!

That’ so funny!
We dream about one world,
Count and narrating our land
Like almost all camps of reality,
Meanwhile, you believe just yours is the World
- And the rest of people need to adapt.

One planet,
One love,
Just in another world.
