Such Sad
Such Sad in your Eye
As one is ready to leave
A Mother's womb
From Time's winter Eve
Starting anew at 0
Ready to experience Short-comings
By the early age of 5(yet barely Alive)
Young peers are thrown at you
Bullies to pin us down
Mock now
Tease which hurts
It embodies the cruelty
of this Stage all around
Exclaiming that WE are just a Clown
Piss-ants,by the age of 20
Harboring only allusions of Helping the Needy
Instead of serving ourselves
And when 40 is close at hand
You and I are tired and withdrawing
For today and forever
God is just a Friendly three letter voice
Pointing out the fact:
YOU,AS MY 1,243,678,000BORN
DO,INDEED,HAVE A CHOICE
"amen" to that!!
