rudeness as its finest
Location
people are texting while they are driving
are you insane? the sad part is that they justify their wrongdoings
whatever happen to say thank you when holding the door
there is a difference between opening and holding the door
if you just open, why should i say thank you
you obviously didn't show any courtesy
i'll just brush you off like fresh dirt on my clothes
whatever happen to decent men who offer their seat to an elderly or pregnant woman
women are doing what a man is suppose to
i can see their parents didn't instill values
i remember people saying good morning in the morning hours
it seems like people are never happy
i honor that everybody is fighting a battle we don't know about
it's what you do everyday that inspires you to keep living
people are pushing just to sit down in a seat of a bus
people overbear themselves by shoving and there's a stroller with a baby sleeping
it's the whole i don't care attitude
why is that?
we continue to misteat each other as if we are slaves in the south
where no one any rights
it's as if we are own by slavemasters with bull whips waiting for a person of color dare to escape for freedom
last time i recall
we all have the freedom of speech and expression to convey our thoughts without repercussions
it feels like in this generation, adults included, are getting worse
by each day, each hour, each second
their jurisdiction is believe to be the notion of it is what it is
we have the power to change
we choose not to
and you know's frightening? if you are parents
what are you educationg your kids to say? to do? to think?
that it's appropriate to emulate a guy, who's pants sag, chest slapped, eyes popping out as a representation for a man
that's it's proper for replicate a girl, who's skirt is too short, spitting out babies faster than bars itself, and use a baby as a trophy to gain advantage
it's easy to do all those things above plus more
why is it hard to teach yourself and live beyond your surroundings
why is it foreign to say hello rather than lashing out and use this as an excuse to why one always get in trouble
why is prehistoric to know truthful history and not around the way gossip that is redundant like a boring professor going ovee the same material repeatedly
want to know why? because it's easy to do bad
i don't want to hear that the world is coming to a close
and even it is
god will take all the good people with him to a better place
and everybody else can rot in hell

One word... WHOA!!! This poem tells the cold hard truth and I like it. I hope someone takes this to heart out there and changes their way of living for the sake of all and their destiny. God bless you and keep writing on my friend:)!!!
Sup! Life has been going well especially since I have been focusing mostly on God. WOW NYC is the unhappiest city in the U.S.!!! How could a place that started off with so many opportunities and dreams fall so unhappily into destruction. I'm glad your still keeping your head up in a city that is so unhappy. Like my pastor told me, keep being the light in a dark place and soon enough the light you shine will overcome the dark. Thanks for being a bright light in a dark place for all and I will definitely check out your other poems. God bless and keep writing on my friend:)!!!
I feel your frustration and it definitely rings true for me. I've been beat down with words so many times when I've had to stand up for what's right and when I've had to stand up for others, so I'd say I've had my fair share of the self-involved attitude. I don't know why it seems so hard to find people who think outside of themselves. But the 'fuck it, I don't care' attitude is a dangerous one.
Anyway, I like this alot.
