wars don’t have a horizon in sight
and there will almost always be beings to force to fight
but I’ve never heard of a dead person that has fought
a war is a war no matter what you call it
some are declared
others are not
wars, occupations, conflicts, slaughter; it doesn’t matter
just ask those who fought
no longer a chance to ask those who are not
no longer a chance to be Free
unless you’re for peace and liberty
but it is what it is
we were suppose to sit and rot
to decay as if we are truth
or because we are
i worry in times or chaos
and wonder in times of wait
i stutter when i am nervous
and i see others shudder in times of late
it is sometimes hard to see the future
and often harder to look at the past
to do either makes you courageous
but only one can last
i tend to speak in times of trouble
and i don’t intend to stop until i sleep
i dissent from all tyranny
and recently i haven’t had much time to sleep
the future will overshadow the past
and some want both to disappear
there’s nothing better than Freedom
but some will still choose fear
we all have mixed emotions
and hell, who hasn’t shed a tear?
yet there’s no reason to hide the truth of the past beneath a lid
when you can see so far and clear
looking rightfully and insightfully to the rear
no matter your diction or faction
or satisfaction
divisions can be used for distractions
but to conquer a people is not as simple as that
you can rob them of their riches which are rare
and their freedom which is always there but becoming scarce
or even give them some structure
a house with a mortgage
two kids and a dog or a cat
so their full of joy
or something like that
you can replace scientific evidence and self evidence
with pseudo scientific non sense
while keeping illusions alive and swelling
time, though, is always telling and ticking
and bubbles are inflating
and subsequently imploding
as wars are still raging
and the people
we the people
watch as if this is theatre
which is what it ultimately is
without an off button besides offing yourself or everyone else
no wonder more u.s.
than from combat or any enemy
yet every death resulting from war is just another murder of our true enemy
and to them it might as well be a board game
the backers of every side of every war
and the enemy in the war on you and i
i guess that makes us one in two
or quite a few
together through all worries and weather
our voices are solid as rock
and still soft as a feather
but actions create results
and i know words can do so much
but obviously not enough
or maybe, ironically, too much
everything comes full circle
and language is as such
like language, Freedom, is a seed blowing in the wind
ready to search, settle, and sprout
i want to go on forever but my mind is running off and out
so i’ll leave you with something to be talking about
we are all witnesses to the longest war in u.s.
and some say we got into this mess because we were attacked for being Free
so let’s speak now before we can’t or wont
and if you have two legs please feel Free to stand by me
but only as long as i want to be Free
and believe me; you don’t and wont have to worry
