"Fall...."
  by Shaboogie


I love fall
all the different colors of leaves
the smell of decaying leaves all around me
I just wanna jump in a big pile of them and rest for a moment
The weather begins to change
from warm to cold gradually
My birthday is in the fall
The birth of my child came the day before Thanksgiving
what is it exactly are we really giving thanks for anway
This world is in ruins
We are about to become governed by a "New World Order"
Martial law is only but a few years away
But we turn a blind eye and choose not to see
I wanted a nother baby
but the more I think about it the more I know that this world isn't fit foro my children or my childrens children
We are consuming more resources then we are able to produce
FREEDOM IS NOT FREE
all these wars we have fought I can't help feeling liek they were all for naught
What is the greater good anyway
One person under God
ain't that what the pledge of allegiance states
What a joke
These politicians who also moolight as CEO's of major corporations
draft laws to benefit the machine
what of the common man
who came here with dreams of building a better life for him and his family
only to have his illusions shattered and replaced by the bitter sweet truths
America the beautiful well to me she still is
Tho for how long guess only time will tell
I pray for peace
piece of mind that tomorrow will be a better day
That some how some way
man will cease to thrive on greed
and start to believe
there is a better way
So Mr. President it is to you I say
Please help us all find a better way
be we rich ,poor ,black ,white, young, or old
Your vote was sold
on the fact that you made us beleive you could bring about change
Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk
make us all proud of the fact that we voted for you
not because you are a minority but because of your promises to change
So this time next year when it is once fall
My only hope is that you have shown us all
How to change
and be better people as a whole

I think the fall and change are a hopeful attitude to what we are going thru no one ever does change with ease but it is a beautiful time of year
