A Poem by hdc
"

We are not who we are suppose to be.

"
We are not who we are suppose to be.

We do not speak how we are suppose to speak.

The words we use are not our thoughts.

Our basic instincts torn apart.

Our guts ripped out and replaced with fear.

The time and place is now and here.

We feel the need for change is strong.

But still we sing the same dam song.

The path is laid, and mapped out for us.

We're given G.P.S. and told to trust.

To trust in god and government.

To work and work till life is spent.

To trust in man who's power is made, by NOT taking the path that HE has laid.

Written with such accuracy! I have to say, I like the honesty. And you're completely right. We are asking the Government what to do and where to go and we never want to think for ourselves because it'd probably be too difficult. Not to mention we'd be completely lost without the government. Can you feel the eyeroll with that last statement? But, it's true! We act like we can't guide ourselves. And we are asked to trust in (blank). Fill in blank with anything and we're most likely asked to trust in it. Government, Politics, Religion, and on and on. We're forced to blindly trust and hope we aren't killed by it or for it. Anywho, I'll end my thoughts there. I don't want to get too political now. Haha.
