Not Human

The culture of peace
Has slowly subsided
Tyranny has finally
Rendered it silent
Commotion
In the streets below
No emotion
In the faces I used to know
History books offer
Descriptive reminders
Of a stolen past
Left far behind us
A simpler time
Of women and love
All that seemed to matter
Was if the sun rose above
Poets, philosophers,
Intellectuals and such
Quickly turn to dictators
Unruly oppressors, to power they clutch
Rioting in the streets
Police hold their ground
Stomping feet
Revolution is just around-
Around the corner, under the trees
I can be found alone
Writing and thinking
Of my essence with scorn
My thoughts may not count
My soul may be bare
In My dream of dreams
We can’t yet be there

Absolutely riveting! I loved this!! Flawless in every way conceivable. You expressed yourself with poetic eloquency, and gorgeous images. Society rules us all, it seems... yet, some of us have yet to be chained to its throne... There are so few of us that are not slaves to ignorance and the media... Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Intense emotions here, a somber melody that we all sing. Again, merci for this masterpiece. All my love. Forever,
