Confusion

We stand up
We gather our weapons
We band together
We fight
We battle
We win
We gain power
We are commoners over 
Emperors
We are the powerless with 
power

They came
They rebelled
They fought
They conquered
They are Royalty to us 
peasants
They command God
They are power high

Ecstasy running through 
everyone’s veins
The order of things thrown into 
mayhem
Chaos controlling everything

Who are the leaders?
Who are the followers?
Who are the winners?
Who are the losers?
Who are the royals?
Who are the normals?

The leaders are followers
    Followers are leaders
The winners are losers     
    Losers are winners
The royals are the normals
    Normals are royals
Everyone is everyone.

David William Breidenthal April 20, 2014 at 4:13 PM Wonderful questions injected in this write. Awesome imagery and this one earns a 7 and favoriting it. :DD GOOD JOB! The rhythm was pretty cool too! This sort of made sense to me...hardly any confusion here. ~ DWB
