 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

Fools world


Frustrated daily by the stupidity of more fools
listening to arguments so long out of date
beckoned and pointed at…
trapped in this fools world
ready to answer… but never relate.
Never understanding futility of reason
when all they can reason is how I relate
often called an aggressor…
but always fighting for justice
lost in this strange world… where life's up for debate.
Conscience just a weapon never really considered
true have I stood to face down my foe
shaking and fearful…
but courage within me
saw my life conquered… for all I don't know.
Now all I can hear is the shouting of more fools
shouting their rights to do as they please
If only eyes opened…
could see where we're heading…?
this fools world we live in… might rise from her knees!
