Set Your SightsA Poem by SanityA poem I wrote in another rebellious mood of mine. I figured I would re-vist some of the past themes I have used in my work and this is the result.I was barred, scared, and charred but it doesn't matter ....that's just who we are but wait hold up rewind that I am the fire that will set this world ablaze I will burn away this craze this daze this never ending haze I will light up this world and shine like the brightest star for we are the sparks of the new generation inheriting a world filled with plight so set your sights and fight but we the silent are given no choice so if needed ..I will provide the voice of a people so ignored we must shout to be heard absurd we will take back this land and demand our right to breathe to conceive a world without hatred a world without fear but just as it draws near ..the sparks die out quenched by tears and the world grows cold the skies grow old and we remain controlled but if I may be so bold we must stand and demand our place in this world our place in this life show them what happens when you push a people filled with strife and how every action is a double bladed knife so set your sights and fight you know the time is right raise your banner raise your fist the new generation must enlist to fight for our lives to fight for our dreams because if you haven't guessed the theme we need change so rearrange set your sights ....and prepare to fight
