I got this poem, see?
I got this poem that's supposed to represent you and me.
but not just you and me
the whole freaking society.
now society...
society is something that's so diverse
it's so difficult to find a way to transverse
the things we regularly rehearse.
the hearse...
the hearse that carries our beloved soldiers
into those six feet deep habitations
its beyond the limitations
given.
through the false solicitations
given to the soldiers in the desert
that endure the showers of scarlet precipitation.
forget the nurse
it's too late! get the hearse.
the hearse...
the hearse that carries our beloved soldiers…
the soldiers in the desert who once fought.
who once fought...
for what they thought they believed in:
for their pride.
for their country.
for their revenge.
or maybe...
maybe it was for none of the above.
just got swept up in the whole contribution
of the retribution
of this so called revolution
of this mangled bodied pollution
of killing a terrorist body illusion
is far from becoming the solution!
so I got this poem, see?
a poem that represents you and me.
but let go and let be.
this poem I read
will only lead
for the need to feed upon this growing seed
of unknowledgeable hunger
to linger.
And to what extent will it suffice?
There’s never an end
To this killing device.
The murderer of all philosophies.
The murderer of all ideas.
I got this poem, see?
a poem that represents you and me.
Social equality...
the conflicts facing are far from becoming resolved.
the joining of the forbidden beings
the killing of an innocent pre-life
the cross conflicting with the book
the forbidden watching over the forgotten
there's so much more...
The young face it.
The old face it.
We all face it.
Society’s ignorant bliss
isn’t so blissful after all.
We’ve all succumbed to it.
We’ve all been afflicted.
When will time come to tie loose ends?
I’m sorry to inform you, but
grandfather time is dead.
nonetheless...
I got this poem, see?
a poem that represents you and me.
while sitting in this murky sea,
we come to a resolution
there's nothing left to believe in
no leaders in our faded eyes
amongst the fog
there's and outcry
but don't mind
for the screams and the grasping hands that are outreached
are blind
aimless
confused.
forget it!
we are no future generation
we can't lift this weighted anchor
we've watched you drown.
forget it!
we are no generation X.
we aren't the lost generation.
we're the messed up kids
forced to lead this world
of insanity.
so once more I say...
I got this poem, see?
a poem that represents you and me.
do you see?

- Title: Reflection of Chaotic Swings
- Artist: suki_suki_lore
- Description: This was a school project when I was in high school. We had to write anything that had to do with the government, so I chose a conflicting issue at the time: the war in Iraq. In the third verse you kind of really have to pay attention to the play of words to understand. I think it may have only made sense cause i wrote it, and made up the metaphors, myself. Well, you can be the judge of that, I suppose.
