'Society'? I'll give you 'society'
It's about people and the
way they treat each other
About how they think
and the way they live life
To break away from what
is considered Normal
and acceptable in 'society'
makes you an outcast.
'Society' Holds us to ransom
If we do as we are told
we are accepted.
If we take our own stand
we must expect to be
criticized and ostracized
Take Christianity for example
If we fit into a group's
criteria then we are accepted
if not we cannot join
or we are frowned upon
Is it not the will of God
that all man are equal?
Are we not taught
to be non-judgmental
to accept each for what
he is?
No not the villain who
has committed a crime
but man who is trying
to be the best he can be
regardless of his beliefs
Writing Poetry is no exception
So write about life
write about how you feel
write about the future
but always think about love
hope caring and being
who you are
For it is from this
that we make our place
in 'Society'
as individuals with rights
and something precious
to share
