PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

everyone wants to find something pure to sink their teeth into.
squeeze it dry for their thirst for beauty,
leaving it withered and tarnished.
everyone wants to leave their mark. it's..
it's..
a struggle
to touch the untouchable
put their fingerprints on a shiny new toy
when you are an overgrown boy
immature adults seek out joy
control the chaos you deploy
when our soul is all bent and twisted
we look at the neighbor kids and
!~~~don't touch~~~! you might hurt something
and pull them down to your level,
destroy for help..
a circular loop where you can't help yourself
an outside source has a hand to lend
but you'd just try to kill it.
cause competition is self defense.
diligence is readiness
self control is competence
society is a drowning pool
7 billion deep
pulling on each other's legs
trying to stay afloat
so once you've found the Boat
stay out of the water, and help others win
lend a rope but don't fall in
