    To Hippie "Weirdo's" Everywhere


    The universe sings....
    it's your soul.
    the cars on the street
    watch them roll.

    wheels they're turning
    flashing eyes burning
    everyone's learning to drive
    for as long as they're alive.

    live in your mind
    and you'll only find
    you live in an attic...
    repetition and static

    live in the now
    you already know how
    just like you did
    when you were a kid

    now listen to me
    cause I want you to see
    how because you are here
    I am free

    When I think of you
    all I can do
    Is think "That's who I am"
    and then I can jam

    Of course, everyone's me,
    but I like to see
    myself as the ones that I love

    It makes me shine
    It makes me sing
    like the stars of your soul all above

    brothers and sisters, peace
    restlesss worries ceace
    this poem's a magical charm
    to bless and protect you from harm

    Actually, in a really odd and dorky way, this is kind of endearing. I guess because it seems very unassuming and hopelessly extroverted, like something from the acid casualty who didn't end up thinking that he was an orange and everyone wanted to peel him. It reminds me of an awkward rhyme this beggar came up to me with one night, and that was pretty charming too... I gave him a few bucks no problem.

    And I'm glad you didn't say it's a good idea to live inside your mind-- because it isn't. For once, someone isn't saying 'look within'!!! And the ending kind of sealed the deal-- it's like one of those Fantasy/Quest-type video game chants or something, except it's for homeless people trying to survive on the crazy streets... and I mean that in a good way.

    lol I'm not afraid to say it...it's crap. Not really sure why I posted it...got other ones l like better, but this one was about hippies. It kind of makes me a little sick to read it,though.
    I honestly don't know what I was thinking when I wrote it or when I posted it. aaaugh[​IMG]

    ^sometimes we dont think when we're writing, i do it often and finish off with a big X! writing things that maybe arent very substantial is how we learn to recognize fluff and instead write things that are concrete...so keep writing, no matter if it's "crap" or not...it still flows well!
