Um...here's a poem I wrote awhile ago I hope you like it.

"A Song for the Future"

Rejoice all you sons and daughters of the coming age
For you were born with hopes to engage.
You have been chosen to be liberators of this land
You will be the cleansers of humanity’s blood-stained hands.

In years of past battles have been fought,
Wars have been started, and valor has been sought.
Children and elders, peasants and knaves,
Have perished in battles, but not in vain!

For if we look to those days for the merits of war,
Through all the lives, that have died by the sword
An ocean of sorrow, dread, might, and sin
Love will finally conquer, and change our direction.
“DON'T TELL ME this IS REAL because it is the edge chunk of what I feel!”

-Michael McClure
