Here is the first slam .. poem .. whateva you wanna call it. Enjoy .. Comment .. Be honest!!!
White Flag
I see white flags held high
I hope you see it before mass destruction
Babies having abortions
Black on black crime
Society old before time
Ugly duckling lost their path
Got high to the sky by the draft
Let it be your best friend
As the needle brings it to an end
Am I wrong to give in?
Cause apparently when we protest
The police get the hose
And don’t reach for your wallet
Cause we know how that story goes
And when we try to make a difference
Society doesn’t understand the governments’ direction
And it will benefit us while it puts holes in our pockets
Dead soldiers lay on Middle East pavements
Lower school funds and raise taxes
While our souls become contaminated
I see white flags with stains
Blood that sweep through veins
Caught in a trance
Watching life for the last time
Through the point of view of an ant
And I am not content
When little girls put fingers down their throats
Counting their rib bones, sitting on the bathroom fall
Living in a country that separated church from state
But now Bush has to separate the straight from the gay
Ignorance will kill us before our temper and pride
And while others point and hate us
We still hold on to our American flag
And for America some will fight
Until you are stuck 4 months over your time
And the sores on your feet start to mold
Walking miles under the sun for a man that doesn’t know your name
After awhile feelings start to change
I wave my white flag
Let it flutter through the wind
As I dream that wars within will end
One voice won’t make a difference
Just another poet with an opinion
I let go of my white flag
While the same story is being told
Children are dying
While the lucky get old
Let the poor rot in the soil
While the rich will build new homes
Government is paid to lie
And let us die in make believe
Violence is number one
Then comes disease
Does anyone realize that we can never win?
White flags nailed to the doors
Mailed to the homes
Yes America I know we give up
We will eat and we will breathe
Drink and spit on the civil rights dream
Women suffrage, hippies
Yes I know what the white flags mean
