I just got promoted to officer in the Blackrosegamer union and our leader specified he'd like to see some poetry in the union. I thought of one particular piece i really like and thought I'd post it in a blog before I put it in the union to see what people think of it. so give me some feed-back if you will. It should be noted I'm not sure if you could technically call this a poem as he presents it as more of a "rap" for lack of a better term. it seems kinda dark in the beginning but I think when you read the whole thing it makes you think.

Chapter 1.

I'll embrace dreams again when i can breath again, and at that point I wont be needing them. it became clear to me I was fighting a war iIcouldnt win, you dont make it on your own merit only royalty inherits the kingdom, and thats a system good intentions cant help. your courage is not good here so dont try to excel, what a sad day when you realize nothing can change, the revoloution didnt leave you it never came. there will be no parades, no royal balls, just long days topped off with last calls for alchohol. go to sleep wake up and repeat the same routine smooth skin dressed with wrinkles and brown eyes with dark rings. and entertainers sing of extremes that dont exist for you or me, when real life is reality TV no wonder our youth dont beileve in anything its all a joke there are no heroes just those of us with high hopes. its just not that simple, I dont wanna save it all I just wanna create a ripple. and even if one individual is affected its monumental with an unusual perspective thats beautiful in essence, traditonal thinking wont suggest. this is life really that precious? well yes it is. but there will be no celebrations, or congratulations, no pat on the back, just your mind intact and the freedom to feel your heart beat at the speed of life, go to sleep tonight knowing you did it right. and rest easy outside of a system that resents you for not doin what they expect you to do, psychologically wear you down and then make the suggestion that you get on a perscription to deal with your depression. anxious, lazy, tempermental, obese, thats what money makers like to call a disease. and they'll be looking for or creating new problems with profitable solutions to solve them. but you wont get any better, you'll just come back for more till your medcine drawer is filled with unreliable cures. and thats the way of the beast i cant do nothin about it i could shout it in a room thats crowded but i doubt it'd make a difference. so ignorance will be my disguise cause 21st century america likes its witchcraft civilized.
