Life Logic Backward: Upside Down

Don't assert yourself you'll be quietly successful counting stars
Drink a lot and bury sober dreams
Never fight for what's right and no one will ever blame you 

Disrespect women in all forms, it was the dolphins that brought us here after all 
What is education when you will never benefit from it
Live for the day that lies right next to what you have

Wise men speak of a tunnel that has light at the end, why pass through a tunnel to see a light?
Hello poverty, please wreck havoc on my beautiful soul
I wanna dance your song naked...
Spill over the melody of stupidity for I need it more 

Give me another civil war please my favorite blue eye devil
Drag me out of Africa again please
I miss the cotton plantation and the thousand whip for one mistake
Shackle me like a merchandise again and take me to my beautiful DOOR OF NO RETURN 

Oh how I love my society of brilliant ignorance 
My youthfulness of pleasantry judge by strangers holding smartphones 
I marvel at the hate, so sweet
I am a marveller of this brilliant generation, downloading all Brazzers latest but never an Einstein quote 

Don't throw fate over my words

Hi Abdul. I hope you are doing fine. I'm writing to you because I've read all of your poetry contributions to the Poetry Soup Web, and i got very emotional. I've felt every single word. I got the desire to talk to you if you'd like. I'll feel lucky. May God Bless you and Your Country Abdul. Ameen. Thanks and Regards. Mubeen Ejaz [email protected]
