(are we not allowed to post images with our poems?
sorryyy i posted my button a couple times.. oopsie.)

peering into the looking glass
cannot see in this dim light
feels like we're all drowning
wandering through this endless plight

the world is so apathetic
and it obscures the reality of day
i wonder why things don't slow down
it keeps pushing me on this way

screw you, i don't care if i'm jaded
at least i follow on my own terms
i'm not a slave to society
it's this inside that burns

don't judge me for what you see
i've got more intellect that you would expect
but like it really matters
because you opinion would seem to reflect

you can't understand this feeling
seems to be the retort
you think i'm being 'immature'
but this is my last resort..

**i don't take very kindly to censorship.
actually i despise it. it ruins the apparent
beauty and symbolistic meaning of so many
different art forms. but. in this case i've
decided to remove the profanity in this poem
because this isn't my webpage. and although
i also don't take kindly to authority i respect
the wishes of the administrators.**

This is a great poem. Why do not many of us rebel for we are afaraid. Thank you for sharing.
