I had a dream

I had a dream that you and I

Ruled the Earth with an iron fist.

Everyone was bent to our whim and

Waited on our hand and feet.

People respected us.

We sat upon chairs made

Out of solid gold, with our heads

Held high and our shoulders squared

And our gazes steady and firm ahead.

Never again would we have to wait in line.

Never again would we be made fun of and pestered

For who we were and what we looked like.

The world was ours and we could do with it what

we  pleased.

The message you convey is powerful. We in this world are judged for our power, we are looked down upon due to our rank in this world. We as a race are giving perks to the rich, famous, and talented. Wouldn't it be nice to be waited on hand and foot, wouldn't it be nice to do whatever you want? I think so. We all here on writerscafe.org are talented, why don't be paid for that? The world is unfair. But then again thats life.

WOW great poem, I love it! keep up the good work.

This could be a brilliant start to a story. It's very descriptive and imaginative and tells a little story, even if it is a poem. I love the last line; it ties it together so nicely.

While it isn't my favorite of your poems, I love the message as its one either rarely touched or rarely succesfully conveyed. You definately conveyed it. Nice work!

loved it :) Power and position are such unfair judgements in society.... goes in hand with classification of members of the same race... ukk.. loved it

I get the message in the message that you sent. Very sad to think we live in a world where power will get one everything one could want. There isn't much of a rhythm. Good job though.
