PROBLEM POEM (Revise You Start to Get Mad)
To change you I would need to become you
to become you would be impossible
to change you therefore is out of the cards
Why did I want to change you from the first?
I am the only way I know how to succeed
change does not happen systematically
Beyond me there lies only confusion
what a limited way to see.
The problem is you don’t know to read
reasons the school cannot fix ostensibly
there are families and streets, lack of food
history, building, city, the layout,
lack of hope, lack of trust, lack, lack, lacklust
lack of books, lack of ideas, lack, lacking
luck, lack of message, lack of integration
fulfillment a dream lack long forgotten.
Beyond me there lies only confusion
what a limited way to see.
Morning comes early, days light
what you choose to see, look inside look outside, in between
what’s beneath, the common way things fall,
the breakdown unavoidable
the weight, bear it, take it
believe relatedness can bear change.
Beyond me there lies only confusion
what a limited way to see.
