Wow I actually wrote that quick
10 09 2008Well actually I found my old one as well so well i guess you should read that one as well. The first one is, well obviously the latest one but the second one is the original poem. I might try to icorperate them into one and mabey make a song but… . Here they are, and please leave me comments cause I haven’t gotten any in like forever.1)Why close your eyes
When you see suffering
Does closing your eyes
Make it go away
Or does it make it all better.
You may get respect but
Do they?
Equality isn’t very equal
is it?
Just think
You work hard
but so do they
hour after hour
blood after tear
a never ending cycle
Don’t point your finger
We are all to blame
Not just for doing
Or causing
But for letting it happen
as well
Just think
Do we “need” what
Comes from their suffering
Forged from their sweat
Built off their Misfortunes
Just think
Are Ipods really worth that
What about games, TVs, and
What about the outside
Thats free and comes from
A real builder mother nature
What about the “good old days”
Where everyone was more equal
Where everyone was on the same page
That may have been very long ago
Was there even a time
Where everyone was “equal”
I don’t know about one but surely
We can create one
If you want sit and
Wait, but if you do something
Then we can free all the workers
We can equalize the word
We can make it right!
2)Do you close your blind eyes
When you see the tired worker?
Do you hide from their pain
And suffering
When you see the bright sun
They see dark clouds and rain
Why do we hide from the truth?
When we hide others hide
Will the worker’s
Pain never end?
Do we need what they bleed for?
Ipods, computers, or phones
Do we “need” anything more?
Do we need more buildings
Cars, boats, or planes
Are we so lazy that others
Must do what we don’t want to?
Why don’t people try to fix this
Blood and slave built problem
Why do those that try fail?
People that ignore it
Belong in jail
To fix the problem we need
To stop buying
And that will stop crying
Why wont people just stop the tears
