Other'd

Other'd

A Poem by Zeitgeist Manifesto
"

the others

"
Other'd
to suffer
with others

abandoned
on the fringe
of a heartless
civilization

Catcalled
by blood thirsty
gatekeepers

Sleep walking
killing dreams
dreaming to kill

Defending
the hurdles
that estrange
all brothers

Failing
to put an end
to the pointless
dissolution

I return
to the familiarity
of my own kind

In the safety
and security
of where
I belong

Laying claim
to the
sweetest
comforts
as a birth right

Do not ask
me about
any others
then

I don't
give a damn
about anyone
else

Thanks for reading. Appreciate the review.
Powerful and strong flow of thoughts. Sometime we are led to dead-ends. Sometimes we must stand our ground. Outstanding poetry shared my friend.

Thanks for reading. It's strange how we see the world...depending on what side of the fence we sit.
