A poem by Langston Hughes titled "Tired". It reads as the following: 

"I am so tired of waiting, 
Aren't you, 
For the world to become good 
And beautiful and kind? 
Let us take a knife 
And cut the world in two -- 
And see what worms are eating 
At the rind."

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever.
