Who Am I?
Who am I, to Stand Guard of False Perception,
And be a Recipient of Celebrated Infection?
Who am I, to Run from well Hidden Shame;
That Quietly Strangles; First to Blame?
Who am I, to Insist that this Life be Fair;
And ask the Wealthy; 'where's My Share'?
Who am I, to Lie and send our Sons to War?
Real Reason being; just to settle a Score.
Who am I, to Want something out of Life?
Land of Milk and Honey; bread but no Knife.
Who am I, to up Rise in the Morning Sun?
Bless-ed are the Poor to Want; and Not have None.
Who are YOU, is what YOU Seldom ask?
I am Nothing, but Something More to Task.
