An Ode to the Armenians of SOAD

An Ode to the Armenians of SOAD

A Poem by ParkerTheWriter

Life is;
a game, a stream, a dream,

You always want to play, but you never want to lose the game,
You always want to play in the stream, but never want to get wet it seems,
You want the adventurous dreamworld, but not the nightmares,

It's a shame that you seem to be afraid of life itself.

Don't join the military if you don't want to be shot,
Help out your communities at home and not the ones abroad,

Every thing has a risk as well as a reward,
In order to get fit, you must first work yourself sore,

To achieve intellect, you much turn off the mindless television,
Brew some coffee and pick up a book,
It doesn't have to be boring, just look,
For something that catches your eye with a hook,

If it peaks your interest, invest the time needed,
That book does wonders for your mind, seed it,
The process of reading is much like watering a plant,

In order for it to grow, you much put in the effort and want to know,

Knowledge is great, knowledge is power,
Read a book, even if it is just an hour a day,
Because the words of letters and pages of paragraphs,
Are the income that knowledge pays.

I enjoy reading philosophy. It's become one of my favorite reading materials. I'm very politically minded, often thinking of the faults and f**k ups of the world rather than the positive things in fro.. more..
