You address the press,
Preach the issues
Of aggression,
Oppression,
Economic recession.
You place your people in a box,
Spoon-feeding complacency
To the ones whose trust you've stolen.
Promising peace,
You wage war against the world.
You candy coat your cold blooded culling,
Make the people praise your prowess.
You cater to critics,
Proving points to problems they approach.
You say that we'll see change,
Yet we witness it only for the worse.
So now a word from the wise.
Stand up.
Take a bow.
Gaze upon the masked masses
Waiting for your promises yet unfulfilled.
We the people of the United States,
In order to form a more perfect union
....
Are watching.
And waiting.
So, act.

"fuck politics." Kind of thinking is why we are in 2 wars no one wants, why huge corperations run the world and the Banks OWN YOUR LIFE'S WORK> No Fuck Polotics is NOT THE ANSWER. Education is the answer, educate yourself so you do not get taken advantage of. They don't want you to pay attention and guess what they are gettign what they want. HUGS!

personally i think politics are the reason we are having to deal w all that stuff. unedjucated people are bitching about what they want so the leaders feel obligated to please everyone. go to war to please these people, but health care to please the opposite party, and they are overlooking what actually needs to be done. theyre trying to hard to satisfy the people who dont know what they are talking about just so they can get re-elected.
plus it causes arguements (like right now) and people will yell and yell their point regardless of the fact that they will NEVER change the other persons mind cus they are too busy doing the same thing...which is why im gonna shut up now.

No, no argue :)
Discussions like this, with understanding and and open mind allow for growth. You are right in some points,they are doing what they are told, in special interest groups, those including minorities they can gain from, international bankers, and corps. Knowing what you know, knowing who owns things, ignoring it, is not going to stop the rest of the world from running you and good people down. You have to take a stand, to even take a stand. YOU ARE 100% correct in that I will never change you or anyone's mind. I, and your self-education / experience will only give you options in your world view. Talk, :) no fight, learn accept and "be the change you wish to see in the world."

I did read some of your work, and I liked it. And its ok to get "crappy" poems and pointless journals, lets me know where peoples head space is and how their life turns. Keeps it real, hey remember you got to write the crappy ones so the good ones can come through :) Think Poe never threw away pages? Hehe Cummings never filled a trash can? LOL Namaste sister :)

I realize that it's a very clichéd topic nowadays, but I felt I had to get it out of my system. Thank you for the compliment, though. ^_^
