Truth

Never has the pain of truth been more needed than now

It is poison that seeps from unguided lips

 A grin half sewn with thorns and lilies

Is it ignorance that causes the fall of man?

Perhaps it is the vultures that feed on the failures of our greedy hearts that know

We see ourselves as successful beens by degrading those around us

Our hands are dipped in liquid fire ready to scorn any unsuspecting victim

I ask you this question

Is the fool the one that is kind and is laughed at or is it the one laughing that is the fool?

What happened to the betterment of all and the flourish of life?

Has the paper train really out weighed the beauty from which it is taken?

Is it now when hope of tomorrow grows thin that your tainted eyes see light?

Dam you for your ignorance

Excuses are all I hear

The echoes of crows resting on the death of a farmer’s lively hood

So you have a hummer and mommy and daddy take care of you

I guess that means I should applaud you right? NOT!

You my friend are the fool

Your greed and foolish views of life have drained the rivers of man and the buried infants that have yet to come

Dam the politicians and their whorish words of salvation

I am tired of promises and misguided beliefs

I make my own tomorrow

I need not your soiled money for my success

You look for betterment else where when it is here hope grows thin

I hope one day you can find the dagger for which you have bled others and slash your own wrists

Perhaps a cry from home will clear your muted thoughts

But why listen to me

I am no one of importance

I have no label and you can not see me on T.V.

I am not rich or own a nice car

No I am but what you view me

A fool perhaps but misguided I am not

Its true.
There are people out there who are completely ingorant and only care for themselves. Bullies, for instance, hurt others to make themselves feel better but don't realize that they just made themselves look like a complete idiot. This was beautifully written hun. I love it :]
