things I have been thinking about

We Men

Every man has to fight the fight,
each of us counted,
I refuse to take a number.
We men strive all of our lives,
to get, to gain,
only later to know it was a waste.
It only ever rains in these dream straight towns.
I have the pain,
I have the drive to change.
We men always lose it all.
We men are the same.
