SAYING GRACE & SPRAYING MACE a rant by ~free cee!~
Author: Unknown
ONCE AGAIN ALLOW ME TO EXPLAIN I DEEMED THIS HYBRID POETRY:
it's about strong white powder and existentially stronger gods it's saying Grace in the face of fear it's about long hours and long odds and saving face when we shed a tear
we work in the steel mills we stand on the corner of casual conversation and condemnation popping pills for the thrills and shooting dope for some type of hope
we are the hopeful who have faith when hurt is horrific as pain purport to be prolific we are the ones who turn the gears of a galaxy for the unanimity of a univese which every day becomes worse and curse those whom contend that this is the way the world must be when there are actions we could take to overcome adversity
and to deprive pity of the under-privilaged which lay us low
we are the crossing guards who guide the next generation across streets strewn with stones, bones and the moans of too many men who have come before them
the Minute Men,the soldiers at Gettysburg and those in Guantanimo Bay today the armies that hold other armies at bay so that youthfulness of yesterday can stay the strength of those who might oppose us and presuppose the dangers which declare destitution to loved ones and strangers alike we are the ones who strike against strife and picket a lack of pity
we live in intrepid towns and a citadel of cities that crisscross a land where loss is our enemy and desperation results only in further frustration we should be one town, one city one world and one love and for anyone's edification we should all become one singlular nation
I've heard people opine that God is dead well i ain't one who needs God for hope I ask where is God when a child goes un-fed and then they ask why young Johnny and i shoot dope (c) 2011.....~free cee!~
