Basura

Basura

A Poem by Judas Hammer
"

Sometimes life is so hard you want to scream....but you can't

"

Basura

 

I want to scream

But the women behind me would laugh

For she has seen my type before

The traveler

The East Coast Gypsy

The Scallywag that came to change the world

Another one

With the nose to the wall

Who thinks God owes him a break

Because his childhood sucked

‘Basura’

she would laugh like a crazed cat

The choosen are selected at birth

The rest of us are sheep

Being led to the 9 to five slaughter

Life will track us down and kill us all

For jumping that fence called reality.

Sometimes no matter how we work hard to have dignified life there are still those who would look down on and treat us like basura or trash. And sometimes it would seem unfair that no matter how we tried hard we never get what we wanted while others would get everything we have always aspired without doing much except being born with silver spoon. True, life is is hard but we are all have the opportunity to make it easier. =)

Says much about your topic here...the sheep are the ones who are thrash (basura)...and the end of this capture this well:

Life will track us down and kill us all
For jumping that fence called reality.

But in the end are we not all just sheep... trying to jump over the moon...in our sleep making our dreams become reality...

I know hat "basura" means trash; the overflowing can sorta gave it away....

Most of us are sheep. We're led by the chosen ones...

What does "Basura" mean? Might want to include the definition in the author notes or the details under the title.

theirs almostt double meaning to this, its obviously about working for capatalist pigs . But it also sounds like elitismic phisophy even acapolitic because of some imagery, remember that the gypsy shall always be free :) and we always make our realities.
