poem - imagine

by so so johnson

imagine. imagine a world where everybody gets along. a world where everybody is a rebel. a world where everybody does their own thing. a world where nobody tells anybody else what to do. a world where everybody thinks for themselves. a world where nobody cares what anybody else says or thinks, and where everybody says exactly what they think. a world without bosses. a world without slaves. a world without money. a world where nobody takes any grief from anybody else. a world where nobody is a waiter or a waitress. a world where nobody sits behind a desk all day. a world without factories. a world where nobody drives a truck or a bus or a cab. a world where nobody has to depend on tips, or has to panhandle. a world where nobody has to sell themself. a world where nobody says yes, sir, or no, ma’am. a world where everybody is a poet. a world where everybody is an artist. a world where everybody is a filmmaker. a world where everybody is a singer/songwriter. a world where everybody is famous. a world where everybody is a billionaire. a world without police, and prisons, and courts, and lawyers, and prosecutors. a world without homicide detectives. a world without murderers, or thieves, or muggers. a world without bad people. a world without jerks. a world without people who think they know everything. a world without ignorance. a world without advertising. a world without racism, or sexism, or homophobia. a world without liberals or conservatives, red states or blue states, republicans or democrats, karens or deplorables. a world where nobody is out to get you. a world where nobody is watching you all the time. a world where you can go anywhere you want, and do anything you want, and be anything you want. a world without lies. a world without so-called truth. a world without laws. a world without so-called laws of nature. just a world. imagine!
