Society

A Poem by Douglas Levi Gribbins
"

So simple...

"
Everyone, Society is all like "Be Yourself"
Well it's kind of hard to do that, saying it is as easy as hell!
You're like "Oh, your fat, your wack, you can't even rap"
You all think you could just be me in a snap!
"Look at your feet! Is that weed, Honey, do you see this crap?"
It's going from the fathers, mothers, all the sisters, brothers.
Two sides too society, it's either normal or "Others".
It's all about acceptance
You're weird if you use left-hands.
You're confused if your bi
You're a criminal if you lie
And even if your gay
They think you got a say
In what you want, It's just child-like
It's not your life, my life.

You said a lot in the poem. On Tumblr. I learn 70% of the countries. Being gay is breaking the law. It is 2014 and we have fallen backwards. Where is human rights and human dignity? A powerful poem. I hope the world can change before it is too late. Thank you for the excellent poetry.
