No matter where you go,

No matter where you live,

No matter where you escape,

You can't beat the fact you're cursed,

To live in such __________ world.

They call it the center of the world,

Europe of course,

With so many nations and so many lives,

How can one even get the point,

Of all the power and lies?

So many people, so many cities,

Yet I'm not sure how they manage

To live together, on such a small continent.

They differ in so many things,

And history teaches us so many facts,

But is it really necessary, to know all that,

To understand their cultural tracks?

I don't know so many things, but I do know that every nation has:

A few good people,

A few nice ones,

A few smart characters,

A few pretty faces,

A few ugly ones,

And an ocean of bad souls.

I know for a fact, this poem makes no sense at all,

But how would you describe,

So many people, in such

Few words?

I'm sorry for being oh-so-little creative,

And lazy with that too,

But I can't seem to put up together,

Everything that makes nations true.

I hope one day, we all can be who we are,

And not care what nation you are.

If we differ so much, that nations had to be developed,

Please explain me why, oh why do we all sometimes

Act the same?

This is request poem for Novembering (novembering.deviantart.com/)

I know that this isn't probably what you were aiming for, but I really had no inspiration but to write like this.
