I Release Me
A Poem by Matthew Bass
I´m fed up with the monotony of waking up to the same routine everyday; the same problems the same worries the same aspirations the same goals, roaming like a nomad drunk on the present in the early hours of this city, this lifestyle.
I´m fed up with having all the time to do everything without enough time for anything, to spend another minute not holding you not being with you, with being love sick.
I´m fed up with wealth my social class, prosperity, the white picket fence, with experts with America with Europe, with all the things I´ve ever been taught.
I´m fed up with always being distracted by mindless distractions, with T.V., fast food and no one saying what they really think, with apathy and society.
I´m fed up with being a nice young man who will graduate from a top 100 school who will make alot of money who will make everyone proud who will do the right thing
I´m fed up with poetry, with having to scream into the coffee-stained pages of a notebook, and listen to your crap because you´ve memorized all the right words. |
