Hollow Tip

Contributed by Mouth on Saturday, 17th January 2004 @ 02:22:05 AM in AEST
Topic: war

Bring forth your hollow tip
And renegade grin.
Smoke me with the ease
Of your cigarette-
Blood shed comes as easy as sin,
But isn't that easy to forget..

Bring about your futile destruction
And crimson homicide
In your attempt for reconstruction
Through mass genocide....

They talk of peace, Then go to war.
So tell me-
What meaning does a bullet contain
When we don't understand
What we are fighting for?

Keep all those illusions
You store in your pocket like coins
Spending their confusion,
Disguised as infinite wisdom,
When really-
You choose to feed me
Gilded ignorance and blind faith...

So draw your gun,
And have your fun.
I just hope your finger
Is sturdy enough to pull the trigger,
'Cause bloodsheds as easy to regret
And just as hard to forget...

So its off to war,
Though we have nothing left to fight for-
Except for our existence,
And the illision that leads us all
Into our own resistance...

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
