The fire that keeps me warm is all I have,
I have no food, I need no trinkets.
I do not wish to be entertained.
I need no oppinion, Popularity holds no
Interest. I do not need to freeze but
I still wish to breathe, Otherwise who
will feed my children.
I horde false wealth, I needn't fear
I'll never be punished for my misdeeds
I take from the poor and give to the rich
I see starvation and seal it with a kiss
I lie at every turn to conceal what yurn,
An end to Government and rich people rule,
To take away descent and keep what I get
That the government owns my money is what
I truly resent.
Oh I weep writing these weeping words
they flow as awe out of this pen
and the paper weeps because of it
I stain this sheet with tears of sorrow
the marks I make are sadder still
my thoughts weep to release these words
and I shall miss them
may he who reads these weeping words
weep with me.
All I see is grey, It is the only shade.
I do not see the grass, the emerald green
dancing in the wind, I do not see the sky
What color is it? Everything is akin to something
no contrast in my eyes, I do not see the point to this, I think I'd rather be blind.
Do I dare wake? Am I willing?
To return to the reality I find so forbidding.
To see the pain in people's eyes once again.
I think I'd rather stay asleep.
Oh The Roof is Collapsing upon my heart, The Rapture Forever After, By Design is Benign.
I Weep With Angels, They Comfort me.
Serenade My Soul. I trudge Through Parts Unknown
On my own, Buried Under rubble Without an ounce of light. I shall fall into a peaceful sleep tonight.
Truest Ark Upon Green
I stare up at trees
Observe the lines on their leaves
Feel at ease.
I touch at the bark
I marvel at it's feel
I sip at the sap
I watch it peel.
I inhale the air
My lungs fill with strength
I Leave an Offering In response
To give thanks to the tree and show it that I care.

heheh...I'm sure I'll be getting complaints about this poem.
But I still wish to ask which one do you think is the Martyr and which one is the Republican?
