Planet Earth - March 2008

Don't you like my Lesbian Skin?
Don't you like the colours I'm wrapped in?
Stand back , look me in the eye, tell me I'm wrong
Explain how after this I still appear strong

We can disagree, we can argue about our different points of view
The reason I feel this way is not something new
Why can't we all bow down to the same guy in the sky
or maybe a girl is up there, with no explanation of why

Get rid of the scriptures and man made rules of how what and who
and tell me how it is you do what you do
republican man with your finger on the trigger
when he delivers his message I'm sure he turns to snigger

Worship this and sacrifice that
Should you trust him just because he wears and long beard and hat?
If when you turn the corner to go home and pray
he caresses little boys and invents his own rules of play

This corupt little planet that someone names Earth
thats made up of oceans, landscapes and turf
is consumed by power, dictatorship and deceipt
Im tired of it all, I admit defeat.

Love the way you put emotion into your words! It’s not just empty sentences. I’ve finally found someone who knows how to do it. Have you considered writing a book? You have the talent, that’s for sure.

Hope to read some more of your work in the future.
