RandomalityA Poem by F.GentilJust randomnessI take a second, to express random thoughts I begin to question And unanswered is what I’m left with My mind races My soul is complacent With patience to outlast the most erroneous situations I’m on another plane smoking a hookah with Bob Marley Watching Freud do cocaine with Marilyn Monroe Sylvia Plath discussing literature with Thoreau As Tupac is talking to Kurt Cobain about his time with death row My mind goes, out of this world. I’m tired of feeling discouraged, by the wealthy and their pearls How they can have anything from fancy cars to beautiful girls And they live with no restrictions, except to impoverish, poverty ridden citizens, or convict the innocent and free the people who deserve strict convictions, Why defense is spending a trill- In our own country we have an even higher rate of starving men, children, and women looking for a hot meal. This is how I used to want to live, This is how I wanted to cut it, F**k the people on a 5 dollar a week budget, So that my tracks could be played, So that I could get paid, People buying my songs spending money taking away from their baby’s tummy, Just so I can live like I was something While getting laid, and then again, That’s the sin, Wanting to be kicking it With those who already in it, Sacrificing my life for the price of fame, not realizing I could have been the real victim. Thank God, I have a different, Perspective so I can witness, To many who remain ignorant To a very corrupted system So I want to give you wisdom, To question your own position, That is my ultimate mission, But sadly most people don’t get it The logic doesn't meet convention to A world of true zombies consumed by twitter, Facebook, insta-graming Pictures, Is Kanye West still with Kim And If Zimmerman should be truly innocent Or was it the most corrupted decision, While these stories cloud our minds, we are most imporantly forgetting, That slowly our own rights are gradually descending, No more glocks, To rock, And pop, Off the top, If someone creep up in ya spot, Trying to cop, The new items that you just bought Now the advantage to be protected is gone out the window, With the right to be happy, Speak your mind on the issues... Because if we remain silent, The world will be full of martyrs for a power hungry society Of those who want nothing more to own it all And devour all That stand in the way Of a destiny that has been here since Adam and Eve. Deceive. Deception, And the only message. That isn't ill-received Is that love can beat the power of greed. © 2013 F.GentilFeatured Review
