Define Yourself

I hope that this post finds you well. I am posting todays poem with no explaination nor reasoning. BUT I only ask that any comments are polite and keeping in minnd that people of various cultures visit and read these posts, therefore words can so often become an insult without thought.

Define Yourself


In days that people fear to speak,
Of that which is different or appear weak.
A generation that questions and refuse
That another walks with different views.



Spring the trap that defines their walk
Write your judgment in the rain with chalk.
Pride yourself in what you do Whilst you stand
Wearing the shroud playing the hypocrisy band. 



Rewrite history that favours your comfort,
Deny yet seek to destroy those who export.
Advance the tide of your poisonous disdain,
This the price that flows through our vein.



Clear the slate begin anew the cry of some,
Repeat the beat of your superior drum.
Refuse to learn the mistakes past days made,
Ignorance dressed to dine with all that's laid.



When you stand accept a view you cannot to see,
Man's thoughts for him can only come free.
Dare to walk with different strokes, appear woke,
Come to accept and carry each others yoke.
