What You Could Be

I can't believe I wrote a poem. Well, enjoy.

Brawling in the Garden,

Breaking through the windows,

All of us are prophets,

If you count the zeros.

 

All the roaming monsters,

All the wretched heroes

It doesn’t make a difference,

At least as far as speed goes.

 

Learn your lesson quickly

Get behind the devil

Unless you want your a*s kicked,

It’s really f****n’ simple.

 

Braving Armageddon,

Livin’ in the future,

something for the chosen,

it really doesn’t matter,

 

Be better than the rest of ‘em,

Cuz life is what you make it,

and when your life is like this,

you’d better not forsake it

 

Remember that we’re human,

No matter who denies it,

And we can still be happy,

It’s better they despise it.

 

Now,

Is the time,

And the place,

Revolution calls . . .

 

To-day,

Is the day,

And the moment

Evolution crawls,

 

Do - you . . .

 See,

At the end,

Of the road,

That you’re standing on your own?

 

Wont you --

Li-sten to me,

You must speak free,

Don’t look,

 just see,

What you could be.

 

Author's Note

Sorry if it's bad. I don't really do poetry.

[G. Marie"floating on an..]

This was really a good write. I enjoyed it. maybe a little rough around the edges but the message sang loud and clear.

[ChristianM]

It seemed like it could have been a rock and roll song.
Just add a chorus and your good to go. lol
Pretty good though.

[Katie Louise Hughes]

oooo, I think you're good at writing poems, don't think you're not! lol. This seemed to have it's own rhythm to it, which makes it very appealing to read. There's a lot of "life lessons," throughout this poem, that really makes it special. Thanks and keep up the writing~ :D

[Aggie Skeleton]

That was actually really awsome. I liked it. An eight on the Hysteria scale.

[The Analog Kid]

Pretty though provoking. I like the "At the end, Of the road, That you’re standing on your own?" It's kind of a cool style. Not bad brother.
