New

[NeWBoRN]

So it's out with the old and in with the new,
with every thought I return a new point of view,
there are so many new faces,
lets face it,
this place it's,
beginning to sink in,
how much i've been sucked in.
So i was writing and thinking,
of leaving,
on the brink of,
this evening,
believe me, i've gone you see,
but only to come back,
to attack the black cancerous hack polititians,
until they take it back.
I have no future,
I am one of the middle children of history,
when the books have been written,
there will be no space for me.
I'm a criminal,
in the eyes of the law,
but if I was to fall,
i'm taking down every piece of white trash corporate whore,
i'm more or less,
confessing that i'm an acomplice,
of the movement towards justice,
FUCK the congress,
war on terrorism,
no,
war on civilisation,
no,
war on poverty, war on racism, war on facism is how it ought to be.
There would be no threat of terror,
if we didn't force our beliefs,
on individuals searching for nothing but peace.
There is a thin line between,
truth and fiction,
spin and conviction,
moderate use and outright addiction,
my affliction is the corporate world mentality,
"be the best"
"strive for excellence"
"Fuck the rest"
Wrong song,
don't sing that to me,
I am my own person,
don't tell me what to believe...
I've seen the heavens open up,
and i've swallowed them whole,
but i'll never get a chance again,
with GWB in control.
So are you offended,
by my views,
apologies,
but you can choose,
to make up your own mind,
find your own truth,
not that of George W. Bush.
Raise your voice and make a choice not to believe what you are told.
or bow your head you might as well be dead, cause the world has just been sold.
Because these days it's not whats best for the people,
but the Oil control and gold...
C£N$0R£D.

Thumbs up to us middle children of history. And let's hope we're not one of the last generations of the human species.
I agree Bush is a moron, and this brewing war is mindless and has a lot to do with both oil and a Jr. Bush taking on the vegence of Sr. Bush.
And it's sad that the war on terrorism seems to be coinciding and "justifying" the war on the bill of rights, but we won't get into that.

There would be no threat of terror,
if we didn't force our beliefs,
on individuals searching for nothing but peace.
I partially agree with you, but in the end this part of it really doesn't matter. What does matter is the fact that war will breed more needless deaths, more pointless destruction. IMO: fighting fire with fire just breeds more fire, and if this goes long enough it consumes everything. You cannot defeat the enemy but becoming the enemy.

I have no future,
I am one of the middle children of history,
when the books have been written,
there will be no space for me.
Personally, I disagree. Either we'll be alive around the time that humanity perishes, or we'll be here to live on through (and help initiate) positive change. We'll be writing the books of tommorrow; we'll be in the books of tomorrow -- unless humanity kills itself, of course. So either way, we're history.
I like your emphasis on freedom of choice and your call to make a change...
All in all, a very inspiring poem. And though I find many poets here inspiring, it's not a flavor of inspiring I've seen on here all that often. It's a bitter, honest, in-your-face kind of different like Your Bliss's (but still different) which is why it caught my eye...
It'd be cool to read more.

Thanks for the comments, but I think you have slightly misinterpreted what I was trying to get at with the whole...
I have no future,
I am one of the middle children of history,
when the books have been written,
there will be no space for me.
I don't mean space in the books here.... I mean space.
Anyway Thanks again
