       untitled - poem

       [center][font=times new roman]we... are on the brink
       we stand with a toe over the edge
       and stare up in wonder at the beauty
       that distracts us so easily
       this beauty has captivated us so completely
       that now we are little more than machines
       with the inability to think
       this manufactured beauty toys with our emotions
       we have become dolls at the hands of those in power
       and we can't even see it
       our eyes are locked on the sky
       which is exactly what they want
       because if we aren't thinking
       if we aren't paying attention
       we can't see we're just going through the motions
       you thought that this poem was yet another distraction from
       today
       but my friend i am here to tell you that
       you don't need another distraction
       you need a wake up call
       you need someone to scream at you to wake up
       because one more step and you're off the edge
       their hands are sculpting what we see as easily
       as if it were clay
       but this will go over your head
       you will not understand what i am trying to say
       they will continue with their ways
       we will lose a fight we didn't know we we're supposed to win
       because that's the true reality of it
       we're letting them win
       and we're...
       we're already dead
       so yeah that's that. it's just kind of my thoughts on some stuff
       happening right now
