Aggravation (An Original Poem)

in #poetry10 years ago (edited)

Aggravation…
That seems to be the word

An emotion that follows me day to day
Why do not people see how I see?
Why do they not think how I think?

Why does the world work against me?
Why does the wind blow toward the east
When my troops march west?

Aggravation
That seems to be the word

Why do we elect fools to lead us and follow the majority?
If most think you are wrong..
Chances are.. you are right…

Why does man go one way
When God points the other?

God is my father, man is his child
A disobedient one

One that must change and mature to reach its full potential.

Are you frightened by the word "God"?
Does it make you feel uncomfortable?

This is how the devil feels you know?
The one that creates this aggravation…
That seems to be the word.

I shall make you a deal
If I do not rule over you
Will you not rule over me?

If you treat me how I wanted to be treated
Can I do the same for you?

My children will not watch television…
Or news…

Why fill a youthful heart with aggravation?
Does it not stunt its growth?

Aggravation…
That seems to be the word…

Its repeats in my brain until I cave-in
I cave-in and drink my beer and fall asleep

Or maybe make love to my lady
Is it temptation? or life?

When you cant control the world
What do you get?
What seems to be the word?

You guessed it my friend!
The word is aggravation
