Imprisoned Poem by Michael Webb

Imprisoned



Ask yourself if you are sane
Are you normal, are you the depiction of average
For your perception and mine are not the same
So ware the very fiber of equality down to dust like a savage
What's your religion, your race, what's your name
And choose fast, never be too late
Or else you will get thrust upon the steady breeze of change
Judge endlessly without anything to gain
For your sentence is everlong
Now dissolve in your cage

Delve into the bars that hold you within
You were made to be this way
You were imprisoned inside your mother when your life began
But behind these bars is not where you stay
A heavy footed journey in life with the ball and chain of society
Forced to walk alone and stray
Curiosity begs for accompaniment
But only finds psychiatry
Forced to make decisions day after day

Begging for answers, crying out our cycle song in chase
It will merely be a waste
For every scary strangers face, there is a greeting that awaits
Full of love and not of hate
So let's indulge in conversation and appreciate
All of the people in this place

For we are the prisoners so we may as well communicate
Prisoners of the world or of the brain
Whatever it may be, no one gets out alive
So lets all create
Some quality memories and feelings divine
In our mind states
