***Note: This poem was inspired by a really angsty GW pic. Relena's crying, Heero looks insane, Quatre's playing his violin and looking all tortured, Duo looks… happy, Wufei looks vengeful, and Trowa looks… well, he's wearing his mask and looks a little scary or something like that (I don't remember! Brain… freeze…). Anyway, in front of all of them there's a wine glass with earth floating inside. Hence the title. It gets a little crazy at points, but I did write it after having about 3 cups of coffee and really late at night at my friend's house… Maybe I should have put in something about Treize and his rose water baths…
World in a Wineglass
The world is in a wineglass
And the glass is full of blood red wine.
The world is in a wineglass.
What does it mean?
The world is in a wineglass
Could it be all the blood we've spilled?
The blood we've vainly spilled?
The world is in a wineglass
I think I might be sick.
The world is in a wineglass;
When will it end?
The world is in a wineglass.
Perhaps it's all a dream
That the world is in a wineglass.
I don't know what it means.
If the world is in a wineglass
How will we fly to space?
The world is in a wineglass,
But people still chase their dreams.
Because the world is in a wineglass
We're making these mistakes,
All these stupid mistakes.
When the world is in a wineglass
It makes me want to sing.
The world is in a wineglass
And the alcohol is taking effect.
The world is in a wineglass
We're all going insane.
Because the world is in a wineglass
It means we're not alone.
There must be a greater power somewhere.
The world is in a wineglass;
It must be evidence of some greater power.
The world is in a wineglass
Am I making any sense?
The world is in a wineglass
And I have a point to make.
When the world is in a wineglass
Everything goes crazy.
Because the world's still in a wineglass
We're all still insane.
The world is in a wine glass.
So what's a full moon
To a world in a wineglass?
The alcohol is taking effect;
No wonder we're all crazy.
It's because the world is in a wineglass.
The world is in a wineglass,
It's turning the sky red.
Our oceans will soon follow,
Everything will be red.
Red, like the blood we've needlessly spilled.
The world is in a wineglass
I don't know what it means,
But the world is in a wineglass
And things aren't what they seem.
The world—it's in a wineglass
Full of blood red wine.
The world is in a wineglass
I'm wasting all your time.
But I have a point to make.
The world's still in a wineglass
And things aren't getting clearer.
The world is in a wineglass
Is the end getting nearer?
The world is in a wineglass
Will the madness ever end?
The world is in a wineglass
And someone's crying for the lost.
Crying for the ones lost to useless violence.
The world is in a wineglass
It's saturated with blood red wine.
The world is in a wineglass
Some want justice, some want peace.
Can we have either?
The world is in a wineglass,
Someone wants to fix it,
Someone wants to make everything right.
The world is in a wineglass,
Will anything ever be right?
Can anything ever be right?
The world is in a wineglass.
Someone wants vengeance
For all the wrongs that have been dealt.
The world is in a wineglass.
Someone wants revenge
For innocent blood spilled.
The world is in a wineglass
And no one is innocent.
The world is in a wineglass
Someone wants retribution
For what has been taken.
But won't that lead to more bloodshed?
The world might be in a wineglass
But the birds still sing,
And the music still plays.
The world might be in a wineglass
But I'm still writing this useless rhyme.
The world is in a wineglass.
People go about their daily lives
Ignoring the fact
That the world is in a wineglass.
We're all hiding behind one mask or another.
The world is in a wineglass
It's not making any sense
The world is in a wineglass;
Some people get it, some don't.
Our hands are all unclean.
The world's drowning in a wineglass
Full of blood red wine.
Red, like all the blood we've vainly spilled.
