by Dr. Christopher Davis
37 Years Ago
When I was born
I was blind
-eyes closed
I was born with fear,
With feelings
-no regrets
Birthed into a world with angry intentions
By humble people
-stomped almost to death by
Stifling,
Suffocating,
Defacatingly smelly hate!
Raw shitty deal
That all of us get
While
The voracious appetite of society eats us alive
And shits us out.
To reborn again and again
Eyes open
With regrets-
Blinded by the allure of good intentions
until death
