(Living in) Forced Obscurity

July 28, 2008
By Anonymous

Through trailing roads and wandering streets
Trafficking ideas through the night
Beliefs and wonderful dreams
Once taken away, stolen;
Now crash the darkness and bleed into malevolence
For good will come again;
Its absence marks its return

This poem is really completely random; but it does hold meaning. It speaks about the suppression of creativity our society provokes. We are pushed and molded to fit in with the crowd. I refuse to adhere to this idea.
