The Side Against

The Side Against

A Poem by Ed

hanging on the words of liars instead of a good voice
alert for raising suspicion when clinging to assumption and noise
half knowing, half aware that my head is in the air
of others opinions.
From where do I gain my self worth?
the one's who don't notice or hesitate
the one's who's focus is unbroken
see only another glimmer in glowing skies
and would know what to say if they weren't
occupied moving on to better things
while the struggling attract mostly the dissatisfaction
of passer by's
people can't help but comment on a juicy stake that has been left lying?
would it be a shame for no one to mention  what has aroused arrogance and where its coming from.
a person in need, justice for greed. That is something people are not lacking
do feel incomplete if their space is going to waste, where good people should be standing
A bigger man, bigger appetite, like a big enough reason to push others around
argument too petty, never given an apology if not absolutely necessary if only for the seems.
Men, we call ourselves but
live by the law of the wilderness if there ever was a thing.  Don't need to assume, always hungry ambitions, life is but a dream
diligent to step on whats spoken to soon.  Relentless is not a reason for shame when worn fashionably to the march of a tune.  Swell with pride as we sing "We are men,
Anyone who doesn't sing this song,  has the definition wrong,  They must not be a man. Reasoning?  means justify the end supposedly"
Why ask to play fair.  All I heard is "have a pair"
Funny enough, to be strong, bold,  and courageous refers to the most sensitive part of one's body.
I don't mean to fixate on such tedious things like the territorial markings of another male
but we do listen when mention a word, a sound, a thought,  that infers beyond the pale.
I could go on.  But I'm not a feminist.  I just notice. This place maybe beyond repair.
G.I. Joe or James Bond or go back to sharpening wooden sticks
Can't complain about much.  Might provoke hysterical laughter from those who don't think when they punch. Its a routine, more than a problem.
UFC.  two men in a ring, beating each other up.  beer.  Rap.  Weed. women, WT!?
Logic spills out only to confront me about using rhymes while using rap in a derogatory way.
Otherwise the only thing that comes to mind is peoples usery.  That or a phrase to top it off
that even homosexuals find a little too soft.  People are very creative when it comes to insults.
It proves we've grown since becoming adults.  I didn't know people,
 so enthusiastic about making words hurt.
Looking for the flaws in every logic of the things I've said to be the judge, jury, sentencing, case dismissed.
The fact of the matter is the only side that sides is the side against.
