:: Idle Neurosis ::

our day to day sporadic revelations about this thing many refer to as life. Grab bits and pieces, toss aside what you will, for this is a purely theraputic medium for our insanity. ''cuz one time, when i was high...'', ben and jerry's at 11:00pm doesn't mean a thing...

here's the poem i read at the anti-war poetry reading....i wrote it pretty quickly and it is a spin off of one of my other posted poems...it's short but to the point...and it needs a lot of work, but here it is (of course there is no title...i have problem with them):
~
humanity
what does it depend on?

is the requirement
for your sympathy
a people with the same flag?

is the prerequisite
for your mercy
an alike citizenship?

we have learned
that blacks and whites
bleed alike

but our racist past
has haunted our future
a pride-filled ghost
clinging to 'one nation under God'

segregation has not died--

drenched in red, white, and blue
we are ready to fight

the lesson has not been learned--

it is not us against them
it is us against us
men against men

humans against humanity
