[hometext] => its my first political one so i didn't even scratch the surface on what i should say
[bodytext] => I heard a sick sad voice Just the other day This quiet hidden voice Had much to say At first it sounded only a whisper And grew to reach my ears Until I could no longer ignore What it held in these years It reached me through its pessimism some say But I listened to every word of the tale I had never heard Poorly informed of this place's current state At first it only told me of this world All the maliviolent happenings day by day The ones that are hidden by bigger controvercies I knew I couldn't miss what this voice had to say Then told me of the government and the activists, The right-wing bastards, left-winged old bags, The commies, the liberals, conservationists Then it paused on account of jet lag For it had come from Iran And remained hidden due to its current wardrobe It wanted me to spread the word Like many others had tried I said I would, but you know: I lied.... I appoligize for not repeating what it said I am no better a person than I was before For now that voice has grown dead So has mine, but it shall prevail once more [comments] => 1 [counter] => 164 [topic] => 41 [informant] => SmileSkinDeep [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => political )
