Humanity

Give me a break
It’s the only way I'll operate
Sometimes it's the best when we create
Beautiful pain, terror and a game
Only the outspoken gain the fame
Is it right? ….I'm outraged
At night's end, full craving frenzy
Lost battle, breaking trends –see?
The point of the matter is not what you think
The point of the matter is what we ALL believe
Don't worry, you'll catch on, there's the link
Don’t be mistaken we too can deceive
There’s trash and it’s ok if you wanna bash
It’s alright, but look into your stash, a puff from your hash
A relaxed mind, not tense
But try to make sense, this is not to bind
A mystery? No, it’s our history
Not blind, so I understand no need to be kind
But really, this world makes me hurl
And at times like a baby inside a womb, curl
Nobody knows such respect
But in turn do we have a need to expect?
Reality is a false living,
An internet light worth perceiving?
There’s love for you
But some actions turn others blue
A facet of reality true
Ignorance to believe peace can be a cue
Coexist, a mere excuse to tolerate…
But all people do is dismember, irate
Will this world unite?
I think not, war is means but to excite
Will love be true?
Only to those who challenge their taboo
Hypocrisy is this world
All people will never understand
Cross-wire neural
Science to show actual study
But instead we get stuck in dirt, water, muddy
God, an entity who some try to prove
Yet many fight their life to disprove
Only leading to more separation
A cry for help desperation
A shove in their face
-transcendentalism-
If you were wondering, in case
But not the only “ism” –
Try and hide from optimism, pessimism, idealism, and realism
No, don’t! You’ll be locked in
The beautiful array of colors of your prism
Darkness in your mind, prison
But, I won’t mock
In fact, all we do is talk
Like in a high school so did a jock
But stand up unite, even then you can win a battle,
Not the fight, you’ll still be rounded up like cattle
In the end we cannot win
Even in life you have your evil twin
There will be a time as we’ll all unite
Allegiance dismiss, and alliance abyss
And at this moment it won’t be worth a lonely kiss
We know what comes but “to each their own”
Will not be enough when in a distance painful screaming moan
I cannot say I wish you love and pretend to be like a timid dove
I don’t wish you hate, it’s stupid we know, the enemy even mate
And maybe just tolerate, a simple way of life
Not for many who hide,
A sudden taste, steel knife
Get your weapons; see how many actually lied
It’s brave to pretend but we all have difference talents to extrapolate
I won’t say hold hands, ludicrous
Like a prepubescent, brainless
Ignorant to point and want peace
When we know as humans,
More than animals, like a beast
We’ll always ALL be shallow,
Looking for the better
But that’s what society will allow
Until the moment you think you’ve “met her”
It’s all perspective
Who has the biggest brain?
Do we know? No, it’s selective
We, by ourselves, will never be the same
With a psychologist, defective
All society is infected
With creed, greed, and money insected
Humanity laws subjective
We’ve never had freedom, get it?
We claim faith and turn it into hate
What is “belief”, your sudden game?
Please concentrate, and relate
You can stay with your four corner frame
But don’t, escape!
You’ve all been trapped for years
Concealed in your world, a constant rape!

There is so much truth in this. Great work!
@Margo73 - thank you! I wrote this it was relating how I felt in this weekend of lovely drama.
very nice
@godfatherofgreenbay - thank you! I hope people understand where I'm coming from.
This is awesome, this poem flowed very well, powerful... Good job...
Great poem! I feel ya girl.
I think it is wise to escape the box to which one confines oneself. I will be addressing the issue of mental and emotional boxes, when I get back from my "belly walk", in about an hour. ( I went to Z-Tejas yesterday for brunch and blew my dietary progress. Today, I picked myself up and dusted myself off. It's a new day.)
@ctaretz - thank you, I just hope it made sense... It was just flowing out of me and I couldn't stop. it was the first time I've written something so long. I almost kept going but decided to just stop.
@boricua_chic_2008 - thank you
@RighteousBruin - agreed... and can't wait to read.
@pinktiger335 - You're welcome!
choice via experience is a beautiful thing...beautiful in it power...both kindly and unkindly. I'm glad I got to read it even if religion is not quite a topic on my mind. smiles at you.
I see you let your Tiger out! Neat rant poem.
@Of_All_The_Gall - yes, choice is a beautiful thing if you can admit that it's only imagination that we actually have a fll choice. I meant it to both both kind and unkind... it's a battle within itself actually. It's not about religion per say even though it's mentioned. It's more about how I see humanity and the actions and I feel they're more trapped in life in this world that they don't know about... or maybe know about but don't know they are trapped. I just wished people understood what i was trying to say but these things are subjective.
@vexations - Rawr!!! I do let it out... and it was something that ended steaming out of me.. I probably could have kept it going but I stopped. I never had so many ideas just flow out of me... this is the longest I've made a poem... especially a rant poem... And thank you! =D
@pinktiger335 - its all about saying it and oping you don't have to rephrase a thousand times
This is so great it has real meaning in it
@Le_Farfalle - thank you! It really does to me. =D
Not a bad delivery!
I wish I knew what it sounded like in audio.
@mynameisblueskye - i will consider it...=Dwell practice to see if I can get the flow and rhythm right
