We Are Many

We Are Many

A Poem by Jackie
"

questions. more and more questions upon why so many of us are so obedient and accepting of the many facades in our lifetime

"
How can we be so foolish?
So blind?, so selfish
to our kind?. To Allow
these rulers to leave us behind.

How can we be so thoughtless?
so empty?. To let them stop us?
For we are many. We are the answer
So why are we resisting?

Why do we obey?
This is not, is not okay

This is not the occasion to be composed
or the state of mind for us to withhold
We must break free. Find nerve in unity
For we are many and their are plenty

But the message we are sending
is we are not defending. We are
descending, no longer mending
the cycle has become never ending

It feels fruitless
Cause we are clueless

More excuses. more lies just to
abuse us. You hang our nooses
just to remove us. remain clueless
continue to refuse us

But how

How can we remain so thoughtless?
so empty?. To let them stop us?
For we are many. We are the answer
So why are we resisting?

Why do we obey?
Why. This is not okay

Author's Note

Jackie
Let me know what you think. I think my reasoning for not writing so much recently is cause I been thinking of how I can step outside of my comfort zone with it. it very difficult for me. I been writing in rhyme through out most if not all of the time I been writing. I would like to be more clever with my wordplay. and possibly use bigger words or just not rhyme at all or as much. but really difficult for me.
