How many poetry rules did I break when I wrote this 3 yrs ago ?
Your mask is slipping
Politics is just a turd
The left and right wing
belong to the same bird
Our God doesn't exist
and neither does theirs
They fight and resist
and we play musical chairs
The world is confusion
White is right
It's just an illusion
Black is back
I am wrong
You are trite
Sing your song
Let's have a fight
The birds are singing
Humans make war
We're not listening
We need a bigger score
Nature supports us
and we use her raw
We're missing the bus
It's not an even draw
The universe is massive
Man's ego is huge
The oppressed are passive
and have no refuge
Animals succumb to pollution
while we provide no solution
Politicians bank accounts grow
while they feed the Crow
The vultures are soaring
while children are starving
Bombs are roaring
and leaders are carving
Earth suffers distress
while we digress
The poor need more
and the rich need less
The sunbirds are sipping
while your fake is slipping
Ecosystems have failed
while animals are jailed
Bees are failing
while we are railing
They can't make honey
from our money
We build walls
while nature calls
"I can't migrate
because of your hate !"
