Personified Chaos

RSS

By Jezebel

Change never comes so easy to a planet so ancient and old. To believe the tiny inhabitants, could change their ancient ways? We are beings of chaos, not order. Only yang. Missing his twin brother. No order, only chaos at our hands. We focus on stopping child killers turn our backs on the used and abused no help for the users, no help for the disliked needy. Politicians get fat wallets to do nothing, meanwhile blood spatters the streets of L.A., Chicago, New York. Unwanted children left in alleys, deadly home-done abortions. Millions will be beaten and used, lost and thrown away. Broken. Children are coerced to join gangs. Children are forced to be soldiers. Join the army at eighteen! Glory and honor bestowed on you for the price of your fragile sanity! Politicians pick their fights, start their wars. The young soldiers can't recover, doomed forever. One lonely house down the street the screaming starts at 5 o'clock sharp. Neighbors turn their backs. The second grade boy comes to class, avoids the teacher's eye contact. The bruises are visible. You think that'll change? When teens are shot because dad's a drug lord? You want to make the world a better place? Defy human nature, redefine "sin"? Murder, theft, lies, rape, abuse, adultery, drugs, sex, alcohol; our chaos, our sins. You want us to change when you're as human as us. When chaos is ensconced in your blood. Two siblings a block away hold each other in fright. Mom says everything's alright, Daddy's just mad. Two more blocks away, a raging wife abuses her man. He's got no one. They all laugh, call him weak. AIDS is rampant in Africa rape in the U.S. and India. Abuse is everywhere WE are everywhere. The victims rise and speak, but are shamed because of what their abusers have done to them, rather than shame the abuser. Women can't wear skirts, drink, walk alone at night or they're "asking for it". Men can't cry gays can't marry. Love's not allowed-- it's got limits. You've got ink or face metal? Punk! You like gaming? Nerd. All societies are twisted, bent, ruined, decimated. No order, only chaos. Irreparable. 7 billion people 1 billion women will be raped or beaten 1 out of 7. 7 billion people to band and change together? What a joke! Too late for humanity, we're trapped, caught in the web of an ongoing Holocaust. We're committed to the genocide of our- selves. No order, only chaos. We won't change. We're humans, sworn to uphold the never ending chaos of us.

At last Ive found a poem that is not about the author. I hope that your reflections turn out to be wrong but I, like you, think they are likely to be right.
