Are We A Born Rebel? Poem by Ahmad Shiddiqi

Are We A Born Rebel?

Rating: 4.9


We come up against laws
That annoy us immensely
The rules are still just the rules
But we hate to be told what to do

Even when we can’t
Make up our mind
We don’t want someone else
To do it for us

They don’t bother us
Until we feel inclined to break them
We are a bit of a born rebel
Will we find a way to sort out a problem?

I believe you can find a rebel in all of us provided you push the right button. And it's important to rebel sometimes, particularly when the laws that imprison are really unjust. Your poem makes the reader think - which is not a bad idea, is it? Good to read you again. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
