don't know (Free verse) by the_poetess
I don't know what I believe anymore
I don't know if I should believe anything at all
I don't want to fall prey to that smug self satisfaction
when you think that you know something but you don't
I don't want to be a jaded believer
middle class is a cult, not a classification
I proudly belong
I have a sticker
I often act pompous
noone cares if your kid is on honor roll
or if you hate aids and cancer and terrorism
no one cares if you want a new car
of if you are driving a hybrid
why aren't you walking instead
why aren't you excercising if you think you are fat
why don't you pay your tithe to good causes, and not to McDonalds
why don't you step out of your pampered lifestyle where the world
revolves around your silly ideas
and into the real world
where dreams and fantasies will never
put bread on the table
