New World

Contributed by Damon_Maynard on Wednesday, 16th October 2002 @ 10:00:00 PM in AEST
Topic: AngryPoetry

Were you after some new elation?
Planning the new world for your generation,
Your race calls on creation for information on segregation.
Human deforestation is your recreation.
It took much patience to create razor wired creations
and place them in eight places where they defaced racists,
tore them to shreds and got rid of any traces.
After all, they deserved it,
I hold no complacence for those bringing
discrimination to those from other nations,
but answer me this, am I as bad as them?
Is it racist to hate racists?

So where do I stand, am I the good or the bad?
Only taking from those whose have mind set in one place,
The choice of standpoints and control
was not theirs to choose in the first place.
Only one land, taking only one stand
and depleting this merry messed up band,
Who knows what they had planned?
Their outlook on life I can’t understand.

Since when did one persons life become worth more than another?
Dejected and dismissed because of skin colour.
Even if I’ve known you forever,
but you think like that of others,
You can stand aside, unless you open your eyes,
As I’ve met people today, with open minds,
that I’ll stand by like brothers.

excellent write.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time.

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. Â©
