Two Worlds

There are two separate worlds
Here on this very earth
Both of which filled with sin and grief
And also with Hell's curse

The first world, created first
Symbolised by a straight line
The second, evolved from the first
Had become curvy in time

Many are lured from the first to the second
Some are stuck in between
Those who are lured think their world is best
Whilst the other side discriminates against these 'fiends'

The second world thinks they are mighty
Saying their world is free from Pain,
Inequality and Despair - a Fact
Yet lies can be feigned

They use media to convey these benefits
And those naive will believe
But the other side will point out and hate
The 'wrong' that has been achieved

When the lured have two feet in
There is no exit from the 'sin'
The other side, seeing this problem, real,
Proclaim this as pure Evil

The second claims the absence of prejudice;
There have been debates over which world is best -
The first protests against such statements
But both have their shortcomings, yes.

Those in the middle can see it all
From both sides, the good and bad
Some remain in the second, some first
For their ingrained phobic mindsets have all been shed

Some choose to live in both worlds
By putting on a front
Some remain in denial
Some stay on in either one.

Perhaps the second, too, is in denial
But claims on both sides stand true.
Will there ever be a compromise, I wonder,
And, dear reader, which side will you choose?
