[bodytext] => People praise him and he accepts the given glory They raise his selfesteem to unimaginable heights Anticipating the day when he will finally fall down They are plotting now to end his dream of peace No more praises will reach his timid ears Only shouts he hears as his dream is slipping away Why oh why does he take the onslaught humbly Why doesn't he fight them all away Still only in his elementary years he feels the anger Pressing on him through some unseen unwanted force His parents no longer listen to his frightening dreams All alone he faces the world, all alone he must figure out his place Now a teen he still turns the other cheek daily Getting beaten up everyday seems to be his routine Never raising a fist at the God who has abandoned him strange enough he continues to shout his name On the streets around the age of twenty He proclaims to the world what should rightly be He is jailed for disturbing the peace almost weekly Yet his following increases everyday, following the lunatic is ok At the age of thirty three we find him confident of where he needs to be People question him as to the validity of his actions He responds in his humble loving way that we should try his way to see Lethal injection takes his life, condemned as a traiter of mankind, who disowned him [comments] => 0 [counter] => 146 [topic] => 31 [informant] => poet_of_anger [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => StoryPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
