Untitled (Dear [fill in the blank man])A Poem by ghaw2007Untitled (Dear [fill in the blank man]) Verse 1 Dear [fill in the blank man] I know you always want me to score an "F" I know you always want me to hold out my hand I know you always want me to be surrounded by broken dreams Dear mighty man I know you're always planning to start a war I know you're always creating division amongst people I know you're always profiting from chaos and misery Dear I-don't-mind-my-own-business man I know you're always getting involved into everything I know you always want to know what's being thought of and said I know you always want to have the last word Verse 2 Dear egotist man I know you always believe in the great equalizer I know you always want to have it wherever you roam I know you always want to be protected in every way Dear deceptive man I know you're always lying That's why you exist I know you always create situations for your benefit I know you're always taking advantage of everything Verse 3 Dear self-centered man I know you always get emotional when others reject you I know you always want to influence everything you encounter I know you always act as master and commander of the seas Dear adventurous man I know you always seek out to discover new things I know you always want to create new experiences I know you always make the most of life's offerings Bridge 1 Is there a way to change your DNA? Is there a way for you to think differently? Is there a way to accept your natural status? Only you know the answers Bridge 2 Is there a way to change your DNA? Is there a way to purify your torturous blood? Is there a way to reconcile with your identity? Only you know the answers Bridge 3 Is there a way to change your DNA? Is there a way for you to address your complexes? Is there a way to re-create yourself? Only you know the answers Chorus 1 He, she - everyone worships you Without thought, we bow down to your power Him, her - everyone wants to be like you Without thought, we bow down to your feet Chorus 2 He, she - everyone respects you Without thought, we bow down to your power Him, her - everyone's afraid of you Without thought, we bow down to your feet You travel to every part of the universe You build and destroy As it comes naturally to you You appoint yourself as judge, jury, executioner Chorus 3 He, she - everyone respects you Without thought, we bow down to your power Him, her - everyone's afraid of you Without thought, we bow down to your feet You eroticize many creatures and objects You impact the air and the soil You consume all things like a raging wildfire Your ways of life go beyond your body and soul Written by B.
