I cannot trust them
I keep my eyes to the floor
the popular insecurity
has caused adolescent war

No bombs or planes
WOOOSH behind my head
just a constant stream of angry words
around which I carefully tread

Both sides have the advantage
they let out a nasty jeer
then Tols and K begin to rap
and my head begins to clear

I let out an angry shout
and shove him to the floor
I tell him he's not worth it
I won't take his ___ anymore

I call upon my troops
and peacefully we leave
I forgot that I was holding my breath
and outside I can breathe

Prejudice is an ugly thing
and now it seems to happen more
"better you, the greebos, goths and moshers
than the ones we all adore."

~*~basically, this about the evil people who diss me in the middle of town 'cos i'm different, and my friends are different. i get upset~*~

I thought this was ok. Not yer best, but I did like it.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

This was pretty good.  I enjoyed the read... another well written poem.

In my head the flesh seems thicker,
Sandpaper tears corrode the filth,
And I need you now somehow." --Silverchair

I enoyed this poem.  Too many people in this world think it is their right to judge people.  What they dont know is that they have to right to judge a person until they really take the time to get to know them.  Great poem.  Keep it up.

My tears roll right down my cheeks, but they all soak into my pillow.  I feel kinda sorry for it...

Wow, that was powerful. I like the bit about your armies, that was cool. Predjudice and racism and such crap ticks me off. Are artists (of any kind) the only ones with open minds?
