THE THIRD WORLD

THIRD WORLD:The concise American Heritage Dictionary/Houghton Mifflin:

Those countries not allied with the communist or non communist bloc.

Bloc: A group of persons, states, or nations, united by common interest.

SOCIALLY: This country’s ideas are uncommon to the social blocs. By union to a bloc,

just for social acceptance or security would subject the country’s

submissiveness to populate sky-scrapers

and to bore super highways eradicating the old back roads.

This country may lack in modern materialist items that the blocs offer,

but this country is too rich to be convinced of what one needs not.

Socially independent, she stands to be controversial & socially unaccepted.

But as Mistress, for the mere Ownership of Self, many travel a great distance

to share in the history and knowledge of HER development.

POLITICALLY: For this country to be sitting defenselessly alone

and unaligned with a bloc.

Blocs inhabit Her to show their power in the form of flowers or wrath,

with the objective to attain a marriage between the two countries.

The block offers the protection from other blocs

that may try and re-enter her shores.

To concord with a bloc, she will agree to support the bloc’s political interests,

contribute in the great ARMS race and surrender the right

to freely advocate for Herself.

CULTURALLY: She is free of Matrimony with a bloc.

She has wide open fields for the wild spirit to cross streams,

climb mountains and nourish thy-self in a verbatim birth.

The arts pour, the same as a spring that opens & falls,

caressing gently the mountains to feed the hungry in the valleys.

The presence of old souls float as Gods

with wings to balance the internal forces,

so that the heart relinquishes its own voice, FREE,

just as the wild spirited stallion of the virgin terrain,

unattached to the social realm, his mane blowing with ease in the wind,

without reins or rider to guide for he alone knows himself, verbatim,

as this country is his, it’s HER equal.

This is for the MIND of those who have never traveled to

‘THE THIRD WORLD’ and don’t know the fruits SHE bears.
