It

Hello. This is my first blog and I decided to post up a poem.
This is the first poem I have written down on paper.
Please don't criticize my work too harshly.
It was written with many emotions and feelings at that time.

It
It’s in all different shapes and types
It cannot be stopped or ignored
It halts our lives many times
But we still seem to move forward

It sneaks in the darkness of the day
And it dances in the brightness of the night
We see it all the time
But not just using out sight

It can weight up to or over a ton
And yet It’s lighter than sunshine
It can be big huge and enormous
But it’s so small and so fine

It’s in our MP3s and iPods
Our laptops and briefcases
It breeds in our wonderful internet
Xangas Facebooks and Myspaces

It is everywhere

It’s in the air that we breathe
The air that we’ve created
It’s in the food that we eat
The food that we generated

It’s in the ground that we walk on
The ground that we’ve paved
It’s in the tunnels that we go through
The tunnels that we’ve caved

It’s in the pictures that we’ve taken
The pictures that we’ve Photoshopped
It’s in the security fences that we made
The fences that we’ve hopped

It’s in the clothes that we buy
The clothes that we wear
It’s in the people that we have sex with
Those diseases that we share

It is everything

It’s all the shit that you say
The thing that you believe
It’s in the goals you want to get
The stuff you want to achieve

It’s on the crap that you wear
When you’re going downtown
It’s all your facial expressions
Glad surprised frown

You think It’s fun to use
When it comes to others
It’s like a joke to you
Especially on their mothers

You use It all the time
When you’re talking to me
It’s become a part of you
Only if you can see

It is in you

Unfortunately
Because It is everything
I cannot hide from It
Even if I were to be a king

It doesn’t matter if I’m a chink
Because It’s in everyone too
From all different races
Cracker nigger or jew

I tried many times to avoid it
I jumped ran and ducked
But It is inevitable
So I’m pretty much fucked

I want It to go away
So I try sigh and cry
I’ll accept that It exists
And It’ll stay with me till I die

It is in me
