Poem - "Immorality, Brutality"

Immorality, Brutality

How dare they tear us down
And we play the part of fool,
While donning ever-pious crown
To use attendants as their tool.


Practice what idealists preach,
The results shall surely please
When a better's knowing speech
Leaves us not on bent knees.


Fight,
Stand against immorality,
This emotional brutality.


What causes such a barrage
Toward the unwitting caretaker;
Then act like sweetest mirage
When nothing else seems faker?


The aggressor sickens one's soul
And causes them to dream,
A wish granted of reversed role
To destroy the vicious regime.


Fight,
Stand against immorality,
This emotional brutality.


The peon cannot always reform
When hoisted to new heights,
They slip, trip, and soon perform
Those forever agonized rites.


Stand up to those drunk on power,
What was done cannot be right,
Someday they will see their hour
When harsh attitudes are trite.

I was inspired to write this poem due to some complications I was having with a Manager at work. Let's just say they didn't treat me as well as they should have. I used this to get my feelings out - very useful, indeed. ;)

Very nice!!! ^_^

[size=84][color=seagreen]YOU SEE


You see into the deepest part of me ---

beyond the fog I hide behind.

You cast your light upon the shadows

that stretch like cobwebs in my mind.

You ease the pain when I am hurting,

and morbid visions from my past

pierce into the realm of Reason

as though I danced on blades of glass.

You grant me strength when I have fallen

and, once again, I've lost my way.

You take my hand in Yours and lead me

into the promise of a brand new day.

You bring order to all my chaos,

yet set my well-laid plans awry.

You place me on a firm foundation ---

then give me wings so I can fly.

You sand away my roughened edges

and polish all the dullest parts

until I stand before Your presence...

a newly-sculpted work of art.

You see into the heart within me,

right through my motives and selfish will.

And yet, in spite of all You see

You say You love me even still.
