Lol I wish I could write a better poem at 1:30 AM but I'm sleepy and feeling unproductive so I needed to post something.
Can't go to many days without posting something
Need before greed, some would call this equity Others call it socialistic, even go so far as to claim it's demonic How could basic needs be denied I guess its the dream of some to increase the disparity Between the mass us, and those who should panic Because eventually people will see they have lied
I see the conspiracies of oil and money Control energy and then control us I guess these companies see themselves as the rulers of the Earth Perhaps one day they'll open their eyes to see The overwhelming masses cannot be held under the bus Eventually revolution will see them overthrown for what that's worth
Anyways I see people in my town starving With no homes no livelihoods no pride This needs to stop and not be made worse Unfortunately the republicans want to do more carving Want to take us for a painful ride They truly are heartless, for they show no remorse
Well I guess major change needs to come now The problems are bigger than the solutions Health Care, financial reform, climate legislation Are like cultivating a modern field with a horse drawn plow While the effort is there the people can't wait on resolutions When faced with homelessness, depression, and starvation
Its about time the people in Washington really look around Take the time to experience as the people do Maybe they might get a sense of the urgency The urgency of a people being driven into the ground Who want the ability to go to work too Let me remind you the word is urgency
But they forget the word in their recesses Not all but too many to count or remember their names So many many of us sit at home frustrated Can't even march on Washington with the limited funds we possess And are sick of the lack of progress and phony claims It's almost as though they think we are all distracted
I don't know but I just need some progressive policy Before my mom misses another payment and I'm homeless too And it wouldn't just be me, or my family Perhaps it should be they living in they place of you or me Maybe that would change the things they do Living in comfort, with little worry does not allow them to truly see
