116 Poetry Post

Musical Rebellion
Folk, funk, punk, rock both hard and classic
Stirs up the crowd into something ecstatic
And the outcast protest and rebel
Lines between cliques and cliches are blurred beyond where anyone can tell
Commercialism endorses the rebellion
Profits mounting from the individuality they are selling
Passionate protest of fake fad
Society has gone mad
The masses unite and then comes uniformity
And then the bitter taste of conformity
Then when the rebellion becomes passe
A new fashion rebellion is on its way

Negative Labels

Nothing makes me more depressed
Than to label someone hopeless
For the sole effect of such a label
Is to immobilize and disable
There is nothing you can do but hurt
If you do not learn how to support

Locked Safety
Locked safe in my climate controlled life
Away from all of life's burden and strife
Safely kept inside my room
I have no fear of earthly doom
You don't have to worry about a solution
If you can hide from the pollution
I have no guns, drugs or money nobody to fear
Locked up not even the government comes near
I stay locked up in the safest place
No outer contact, no phone bills or credit cards to trace
But what I wouldn't give to be vulnerable and free
What I wouldn't give is myself as slave to this corrupt society
