INFECTION

INFECTION

A Poem by DBURKE

Your thoughts in my mind

Your ways in my days

The unpleasant world

Confused like weed haze

Threaded citizens

Like beads on a string

Of living on the verge

Loving negativity

Living ignorantly

Existing like a zombie

Cracked out on life

Her thoughts

Becomes his thoughts

Becoming their thoughts

Feeding my children

To stand against me

A dying breed

Catching the disease

And spreading it like rumors

Afraid to exist

The rumor is

You will die

Forgotten

I will remain

Because I am immune

To the INFECTION

After I went back and read this I fell in love! What it stands for means everything to me- I can think for myself and I am not afraid to be different! I stand strong against adversity- how about you? Are you Infected?

I really enjoyed this one too! Not only could I relate to the strength that the poem speaks about, but I really loved the flow. There were some amazing lines and great imagery that I've never heard before, and you have certainly created something full of depth and emotion. Well done, my friend!
