I'm trying a new style of poetry. Let me know what you think please.

One Wish 

If you were granted one wish what would it be? 

World Peace. 

The definition of peace has changed. Peace, to one, could be a way out
of an abusive marriage. To another, to end the wars. It depends on what 
world you're talking about. The one inside. Or the one out. 

End to terrorism. 

Wouldn't we have to become a terrorist to end it? Who gets to name them?
How could we depend on that person/s being right? 

Feed the hungry. 

What price would you pay? Who's willing to pay it? What would you do
without to achieve it? 

Homelessness. 

Where would the money come from to provide the homes? Who's going build
them? Can you make room in your home? 

Political Unrest. 

If we throw out the incompetent people, who's going to govern? Do we
really want the person who says they would? 

Get greedy. 

How much money would it take to buy you off? Would money make you happy?


My wish? 

Easy! My wish, if granted only one wish, would be to be more than just
your 

Friend.
