What They Believe

Folder: 
Right Now

 



It's like

 A train wreck

 In the middle

 Of the desert

That no one

Thinks they see


They can turn away

 For just a little while

But then they be

Rubber necking

 To accidents

 As Jimi plays

 Voodoo Child


But will it

 Get the Haitians

 To believe anything

Other then

What they know

What they

 Believe

And Star

You know poets

And writers are 

Metaphorical

But this little poem

 Is much deeper than you think

Or not

The Haitians

Live under a Fascist regime. They believe what they are told to believe. Those who protest, disappear. Millions of relief dollars never reached Haiti because the autocracy demanded their split first. Ex-patriots take in relief supplies. We forgave Cuba, when do we save the people of Haiti from 19th Century oppression? Nice poem. Enjoyed Jimi ~slc~

Something you should know

My writing is more abstract

Then u think

 Example: U see the mess out west

 The world is part of us all

 It is not limited to the rich

Or to them that think they are educated
