Poem Title:
Poem
High Collared, face powdered nose held high above Anybody else Up-righteous flag waving bible bangers Living in shadows, ignoring Urban decay, misshapen society Talking about life in whispers Because everything is too vulgar For your poetic eyes to bear Only seeing "The beautiful things" Blind to the beauty of the ugliness Of Truth Telling me, how to articulate correctly To Hold my tongue, to stop my pen Exactly at what angle, to brandish my sword Don’t you see that it is a bit rusty, thin But it’s here And its right At Your Throat you know for a fact that it pierces deep despite All missing luxuries, an inner-city education Lacking because People like you care too much about trivial things Like deodorant commercials, Anna Nicole Smith and writing in ballots For popular media icons When popular media gets us in the mess in the first place If people voted for representation that could fit the youth And we got a better education in places where education Is not the of utmost importance, instead of spending tax dollars On the stupid, WAR that nobody wanted anyway Except Up-Righteous flag waving bible bangers Who backed out when the tough got going and things stopped Working out for the Republicans Perhaps I wouldn’t cuss so much But I will, and I won’t ever stop What the hell are you going to do about it? Uh-oh…. I said Hell Is that a curse word?! Oh no!!!! Delete, delete, delete the damn thing Erase a different perspective this is a family site So this shows me exactly how Americans today hide the fact that the truth is hidden in cupboards But it's okay to attempt to tell the truth But only tell it's slant The pretty side "turn on the t.v so the Children can't hear her screaming profanities" While the television blasts images gruesome and sickening ideas that i shudder to repeat This is a one way street Get out of the way To make way for a parade of different vulgarities Sexually explicit prose and back ally spellings Of the things I was not afraid to say Correctly, in your face I don't care if you comment this because i don't need another "good write", when i know all i really write is garbage If you like it, then it has to be There are hundreds of profanity containing poems here So I suggest you get that 21st Victorian rear into high gear Because you sure have a whole lot of protesting to do
