Poem By: Jessica Moran (2008)

Wonders of the day;
How it stands and what is to come.
Listening to what people say,
Words of wisdom,
We so seldom hear.
Common ramble and bullshit
Is what enters the ear
Roaming around so lost in this space.
Feeling so lost and alone
No matter the time or place.
No kind words,
No thoughts of pure.
Minds are all lost with in the thoughts we all fear,
Rapists and killers out on their own.
We don’t even feel safe
In this place we call home.
Screams of terror
Echo through the streets.
Thoughts of chaos
And scrambling of feet
Everyone runs
So very far away
They put it all off,
And wait for the day.
The day they have the courage;
To stand up for what they believe.
Our passions and desires
Are so often deceived
We are followers not leaders
We do what we are told.
Not because we want to,
But because were to afraid to be bold.
War and destruction
Why are some so blunt?
I think I know why
Its because they enjoy the hunt.
