[bodytext] => So the new theory is to cut and run Leave the purpose Retreat so that the wasted lives become undone The battle waged Has yet to be won We have thus engaged In the torturing of the sun The weapons lost The cache buried in the hole A rat unearthed Nerves defrost Victory is tossed As a talking point The proper way to come across The school built on a landmine Think of the children Oh my Think of the alternative Better ways to die They come everyday To ask their teachers why Separated and confused A nation is torn by its wounds It attempts to make sense Put things in the order of their respective relevance Is searching my bag gonna’ stop them Is a warrant without a gag, an order for destruction Liberties and the pursuits of pure satisfaction Put on hold for a matter of deliberate action Nobody has any good ideas Nobody isn’t scared Its obvious from the faulty levees The people are not fully prepared To forget the nightmare The buildings burning The smoke blemishing the wonderful air Nobody knows who to believe anymore Just don’t believe your ears The answers are legal loop holes Meant to satiate and relieve your fears Perpetrated by regular dishonesty A regulated muscular monarchy A puppet-sock for daytime talk TV A wrinkled billionaire with supposed supernatural telepathy Dare say a dumb dummy A drug pusher Money hungry Tycoon ruler of the massive oil industry A balloon of inflated hypocrisy Bursts and spews Without generosity But I digress We are now closer to where we need to be And that place is In our hearts In our land Living absolutely free _____________ ___________________ [comments] => 1 [counter] => 161 [topic] => 43 [informant] => lancaster [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

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. ©
