Nothing to say




Isn’t it something
  how I got nothing
    to say.

With war still a raging
  I’m disengaging
    each day.

From a world acting crazily
  their god lost and hazily
    at play.

As religions give a reason
  by putting the squeeze on
    one way.

By calling all the willing
  ensuring them that killing’s
    okay.

With elections a dawning
  I find myself yawning
    away.

A political scene
  alive with gangrene
    per se.

Yeah,
in a world still and screaming
  I’m off a dreaming
    my way.

By giving peace its due
  and loving even you
    today.

Isn’t it something
  how I got nothing
    to say.

Author notes

Um, I'm not sure about this yet, and may do some tweaking. I may not give it another thought either. Time will tell. Overall, just random thoughts about having nothing to say about this world, even though it makes my crazy if I think about it.

Please tell me what you think

    This reads like it could be the lyrics to a song. Very rhythmic, even melodic. I agree with Azlyn that your poem says a lot about nothing to say.

      Thanks. For some reason, this keeps going through my head, almost like a song being chanted. Too bad I can't sing...

    Very nice. Good rhyming pattern and strong message that I can relate to. I have always been politically involved, but this time I just can't get excited.

    One candidate who sounds too good to be true (and as Daddy always said "if it sound to good to be true, it probably is!) One candidate that no one will vote for because "She's a dame." And one candidate that is just more of the same...

    Stretch...yawn...scratch.

    Exellent write!
