Violence

Contributed by lilschizoboy07 on Thursday, 7th April 2005 @ 11:59:04 AM in AEST
Topic: AmericanTragedy



Violence
it's leavin our children speechless
left in peices like Reese's
suckin out our life like leeches
Yet we too busy raisin our flags and standards
praisin these OG commanders
acceptin no slander
an our cliques, race, or even our religion
Against us you speak
you'll end up extinct like the long-gone passenger pidgeon
trapped in a coma with a face full o' stitches
unable to appreciate the time that you're given
America is constantly livin
a life cursed
rehearsed
from birth
to bein mugged for your first wallet or purse
our souls are hurt
by violence
it's time to stop the silence

I really like this piece. It's deep and most importantly, it's truth. Keep up to good work.

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. ©
