New World OrderA Poem by Brandon ShaeTime after time I return to loveFrom the beginning I saw right through the illusion And my mother knew I was different from other humans Making my way with a rebel heart beating though there were times I felt like retreating I wanted to give up but I persevered Time after time, I'd return to love when the world reared it's ugly head, so no, I don't care for this way of life I clearly see in the dark with my inner light Which I shine, now, brighter than ever before Because for as long as I am here I cannot ignore The injustice all around, seen and unseen Mainly why I do not trust the American Dream But I will not focus on the problem when there is a solution Knowing democracy will not be the resolution Nor will religion, since both are the reason we're confused And now is the time to stop needless suffering and abuse If you need me to paint a bigger picture I will gladly do so and show you a brighter future Indeed, it's kind of like a utopia Keeping in mind our imperfections and the flaws of America © 2016 Brandon Shae |
