Characterization

Characterization

A Poem by angelina neves

Characters

Characteristics

Characterization

 

Through out our lives

We adopt one

Then we pick another

Mix them

Trying to find out who we are

What we want to become

Following those we like

That touched us

Those we consider Heroes or heroines

Someone we admire…

 

We form our character

Adding little special pieces

of the real or fiction characters

Imitating parents, family,

Romances, films

Even songs…

 

Characters

Characteristics

Characterization

We choose picking a role!

And most of the poor

Just whish to be someone rich

And many women

Just want to be the fragile princess

That must be protected

By some enchanted strong prince

And lots of men want to be strong

The leader, the provider

And all powerful want to be seen

As good, honest, helpful person

We all should love and defend

And priests want to be saints

And young want to be adults

And adults want to stay young

For ever and ever

And most choose the most incredible

Stupid fiction heroes and roles

And then they say they are victims!

 

The “Victim”

Is the most popular role

The winner of any contest

On characterization

Almost everyone

Likes to be a poor victim

Of some big complot

Specially organized

To destroy their dreams

And victims blame others

Parents

Family, gods

Even their children

That didn’t asked to be born

On “society”

the blame is

In men if they are women

In women if they are men

In white if they are black

In black if they are white

In east they blame west

In south they blame north

Blaming capitalism or fascism

Or communism

Blaming anything or anyone

But the victim

Will never blame

Their own choices!

 

And no one stops

To think, reflect, analyze

On what is wrong

In the character

The characteristic

The characterization

In the role

They have chosen to play!

 

Isn’t it time for us

The so called “adults”

Of the Human kind

To grow up

And be responsible

For our own choices in life

Not going on and on and on

Just blaming others

For our own faults

And the characters

We choose to play?

I absolutely love the way you analyse the "Characters, Characteristics and Characterization" of our complicated human mind! I like the style and your sense of observation very much. You pinpoint a lot of details regarding the psychology of how we choose and what could lead to form our character!
Bravo! That is a very enjoyable write:)
