Of Men and GodsA Poem by Aram AlexanderFeelings of discontent; the revolution of our lives is now.You're living on an incline, struggling up a steep hill Each day you say you're fine as you pop another pill It feels like you've been forsaken And it feels like your back is breaking Atlas was a slave to the world, just like yourself today This Sisyphean rat race, chained by debt you'll never pay And it feels like the Earth rests on your shoulders Yeah it feels like you're forever pushing boulders And yet somehow each day we find the will to carry on Somewhere deep withing we unearth the hope that keeps us strong And it feels like our spirit can never be bowed Yeah it feels like one day we'll rule from the clouds We are myths of flesh and blood But will anyone remember us? © 2013 Aram Alexander |
