The Cause Effect Conspiracy

By Danw

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

War makes mice men To the shrew in the field Like the cows become cattle All slaughtered in the battle Never once is once enough One time be loved One time be judged Be born ...just once You are to us as he to she As they to the, inferiority What’s seen, we judge What’s owned we prostitute The wrong we persecute No longer execute An opinion to me Is not for you to see Stay put, cease thoughts When spoken, they are ignored Speak up, step down Slow down, back up If you can beat your friends And there’s no way to join them Strike back, when struck upon React to the reaction The chains attached to everything Respond equal oppositely The cause effect conspiracy It’s happening to me Pick your wounds, they bleed As you think of what you’ve seen The cause effect conspiracy It all reacts, that’s plain to see Written July 29th, 2001 © on Feb 26 2002 01:30 AM PST   18 • 0 • 9
