Poems - Angry Poet

Angry Poet

by rondo

Angry Poet

“Mother fucking war machine”
“Stupid dumb ass laws”
Environmental catastrophes
A world that’s filled with flaws

Greedy bastard companies
Products built too cheap
Reluctant to engage negatively
Some poets make no peep

Some don’t feel as deeply
Others won’t fight as hard
Enough to exploit poetry
As does the angry bard

Calling in to question
The motives and intent
Thinking deep about crooks and creeps
It is easy to get bent

I need more than a tissue
For some of these issues
If shit just aint right
I’m not one to drop it
If it’s a serious topic
Or let it go without a fight

Complacency is a disease
I can’t sit quiet and still
My conscience must be appeased
Won’t watch them murder maim and kill

There are those who write of flowers
And butterfly’s in the air
And will not speak of ugly things
They do not complain argue or swear

That’s OK they are gentle folk
And may not have the drive
But I’m going to bitch with nearly every pens stroke
As long as I’m alive

There is a significant amount of material for a poet or artist to use out in the world. Injustice and corruption is a disease. You did a pretty good job expressing your views in this piece - nice flow, and a kind of poem that would work really well read out - well done! Julian

Oh, I felt like saying "So There!" or a loud "Amen" at the end of your poem, Ron. You are our stalwart master of rhythmic expose', our champion of underdogs and avid righter of wrongs... Let no one be mistaken, for I could go on and on. You are the poet we depend on, as others will eventually learn! Write on, Mary Ann xoxoxo
