Guilt (Free verse) by Freethinker1602
Again and Again I hear something Saying to me I have no right to Live here this planet is not mine To dwell on I must leave swiftly They whisper of every fault I have Of every person that suffered by my hand The words they give me cause me agony I shriek and writhe wishing for an escape They see the troubled life I lead They know it causes me pain when reminded That I am a parasite and not fit for sanity They laugh at my pain and they bask in it They've shown me the truth that life Can't be fair to those that I've maimed They understand that I couldn't live alone There for they plague my conscious thought I wonder if they know I realize that I am wrong Do they know that I see my faults and cry Do they know I see those in pain and cower Do they know that all this is from my hand I know I see this and try to fix it I know I try to right the wrongs I wait for a nonexistent absolution I see your pain and know I can't forgive me All I need is to grasp for what I want Then in a blink it is taken away And again I suffer That's all I see it's all I'm willing to know

You reached really deep into the crap bin for this one, huh?

And it would please me to know exactly what is meant by this comment.

It means you're in way over your head, kid. My advice to you would be to get out before you freak out. I think you catch my drift...

Why are all your poemes so racist? Black people have just as much right to bask on this planet as you or I. But you won't even let them come out at night to feed. How dare you!?

Where did you pull that from? I see no racism, but then again, I did just look directly into a light bulb, which might have impaired my vision somewhat...

Don't be blinded by your own preconceptions, Ranger. They may be different, they may bathe less frequently, they may have smaller brains and they may not have evolved properly. But that's no reason cast the first stone at the cowering cocoa bean. Why not give it a pat on the head and put it to work in a field somewhere?

The title? "How to say absolutely nothing in 36 seconds."
