Poem Title:
Poem
Here we are a title of a song, a transitional statement with no meaning does it really serve a purpose delaying the inevitable train-wreck these words will incur I concur words are meaningless, disastrous If they were of any help citizens would clean every bit of earwax building in their ears to make waves in lines to city halls for the hammer of justice to... I have no manner of speaking for this my chest can be ripped bare with insufferable pain to describe all the things I wish to say but with my voice and lack of utter talent I can only whisper blanks for modesty betrays me Believe me I want to scream scream at men and women in blue who swear by the law and citizens to keep us safe from harm do right by society scream how they are the stars of their own TV show scream how we've glorified these acts without really realizing it scream at the government for making "getting away with murder" a nationwide trend I want to scream but my voice would be deafened by the millions of others out in the streets, protesting, standing for something my voice would be deafened, put in handcuffs, silenced for all to see I want to scream but there's enough people doing that for me I want to bolster myself up like a bear stand tall above all to scream, to shout in defiance of people praising murder upon families to scream, to shout in defiance of people praising revenge praising physical retaliation like it ever solved anything We have enough wars to fight, we have enough everyday worries this avoidable conflict doesn't need to continue to escalate so rapidly so tragically but I'm just a muted voice behind a desk attempting to fill a quota for a day to just not be seen as lazy today I'm just a muted voice, listening to Volbeat pretending like I'm shouting this rhetoric in front of a crowd but that very crowd would just pull out their smart phones run my name through the ground and I will be trending worldwide as one more person shoved under the rug as non important Why am I even still typing I've said nothing, am nothing I'm alone and with the world so quick to rip itself apart I can't tell if that's a good thing anymore
