What is inevitable...

What has been said and what's been done, is only memory in mind. What glory that is yet to come still hides behind the tides of time.

What is this life if anything 'cept stories and discovery? What is the meaning to the strife if all is just commodity?

What grandiose stories we've been told to hide away the source! What wonderous excuses sold to make it all seem cold!

What battles are we fighting in - day in and out forever? What signifies our existin' on this plane of endeavours?

What can we do if all we have is time to serve agendas? What are we missing out on now if all we are's pretenders?

What concepts to be blinding us to their own sheer amazement! What glory they must feel when they see us at their disgracin'.

What they cannot control however is spirit of the soul. What they have underestimated's the passion of us all!

What one might think he has pinned down will keep himself the captive. What power is to one of them may be what binds him at it!

What they had thought they'd done to us is all but sure to end. What will they do when it comes down to ever make amends?

What is in store for all of us if we just keep on sleeping? What is the call to wake us up from lifetimes of agreeing?

What spans of time must pass through us, what trials 'n' tribulations? What else can we do now than learn our lessons from enslavement?

What we don't know that is the truth about our situation? What we're ensuring is the cage, and that's the revelation!

What slavery has done to us worked only through volition. What we are yet to stumble on's that basic recognition!

Sort:  

What do we have time for if serving an agenda.

Good question. One not asked by nearly enough souls.

Great write up! Good luck!

Amazing read!

The alternating questions and exclaims kept me on my feet all the way to the end and my god the subtle rhyme in every paragraph... This styling masterpiece coupled with the powerful message you're conveying really makes this into something fantastic!

Thank you very much for your entry. ^^

Thank you for nudging me towards what might be somewhat of an undiscovered passion of mine.
I really should do this more often, it was kinda freeing. But I am sure you are very familiar with that sensation, guess music is not my only mode of expression any longer. Awesome <3

It makes me very happy to hear ( read? ) this!

And yes! You absolutely should do it more often! :D Then post it on Steemit so I can read it ^.^

Shameless steemit promotion. Of course, this place is amazing. I keep meetin friendly people like you everywhere I turn on steemit.

Indeed, the majority of the community is really friendly here. Kind of makes me scared to think how it's gonna be with time when more and more users join. Might turn out to be even more amazing... or it might also go the other way~~....

You have just reminded me of a good floor lesson that may qualify to become the first part in a new series, cheers!
If we keep holding this friendly and respectful course it will duplicate across the network by itself.

True, true! ^^ Just gotta keep at it! :D

Your writing is very good. Almost read it as a rap. Thanks for sharing! This was fun!

that is hot,
thank you so much for your feedback @simgirl

I actually thought about, maybe I should write rap lyrics, so cool you mention it. I would not rap it myself, but this might be a very, VERY good idea to throw out to the steemit community for all those rappers out there with skill at the mic and no pen ;)
