[bodytext] => Mind altering jelly Trapped in a conflict Looking for the answers to this so so stupid conundrum, which is my cross to bare Pass me some of your mind altering jelly Do I just go with the total confusion and conflict of views and values not supported by me? Do I fight for my beliefs in what is true to my heart and tell them so? Should I say forget it they no not what they do, they are fooling themselves if they believe in what they say? Or should I get an apology for getting reprimanded for doing what I think is right told to me in my upbringing? Do you want to hear my story? Shall I tell you what it is? Do you feel like voicing your opinion? Where should I begin? In doing what one thought was right One should be true to ones principles Fairness and truth, honesty and kindness Just be a good citizen, team player or Jedi knight Haters need not darken my sunny days Can you be totally right, but so wrong? You judge this book by its cover "confusion" Executed for a crime of compassion Confused by the answers to the questions when they conflict in re interpretation When no means- maybe if When yes means- but only if or sometimes we in special circumstances, we let the participant do whatever they want to do See now you’re confused too? I can't tell you any specifics But here you wish for a big rule book with clear and concise answers Because they say one thing and they do the opposite Or whatever suits Doing a favour Pointing out a hazard I did what I thought was right But it was not the done thing and I was treated like poop Helping hurt me with a kerpow! To the principles of life Imagine you’re in a safe secure zone Badges and uniforms needed for all You are part of a non-coherent unit who have distained for each other and especially you What would you do? Just put your head down and work? Stand up when you think, no you can't take your failings out on me honey? Fight your corner? Get the hell out of dodge? But you have no other job to go to pay the bills The rules are not rules, they are guide lines Well I’ll guide my middle finger to the air to them If I get pooped on for being a good citizen and pointing out a problem or too in the way things are run They say I’m in the wrong to do so It’s a catch 22 situation Like paddling through toffee in a canoe Pass me some mind altering jelly because I don't know what it is that you thinking people but you aren’t being true By banjosandwitch 23/06/13 [comments] => 0 [counter] => 77 [topic] => 6 [informant] => banjosandwitch [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => AngryPoetry )
