Take your pills
Kill again
Who cares what happens
It's all been said
It's all been said

We're the fault
Behind the vault
Too little too late
But who cares
It's to late
It's to late

Pack your things
Shoot the wind
Behind the doors
Lay your friends
Lazy eyes
Done it again
I'm laughing now
Do it again
Do it again

Think... mind telling me what this poem means to you? intriguing use of repeated sounds..but I'm a bit unclear ( probably because I'm old) what you were in the end tying to convey..

thanks!

to answer the question of "what it means to me". i chose to post this in the teen area because i thought most teens would know what i'm talking about. whether it be doing nothing and going to great lengths to occupy your mind. or on a more serious note...the motivation for some teens to kill/take life. think of columbine..i lost a friend there. this is a straight forward poem that dosn't really offer a straight forward answer, if you know what i mean. that's what it could mean to me....i don't know what all my writing means to me because it just comes out. all i know is that it's a peice of who i am and i hope someone can understand and identify with that aspect of me.

Think,
Sorry, first of all, that you lost a friend in such a way.
I read the piece to be a statement on society and violence, but wondered as the author if it had some other meaning to you that might add insight to an old mans mind... such violence as occored at Columbine or in other places where teens were killed and injured in such meaningless acts is certainly to be abhored. Whether occupying the mind with nothing or with a universe of possibilities... violence is simply not an answer that produces anything but more violence and much sorrow..

thanks for the insight...

I agree with Lexy on this, nice work.
