Say something that matters

I search through videos and voices of poets who say the same damn thing with no substance only a dab of romance and a dab of religion a dab of feminism and a dab of themselves when is it that a poet is going to say something that matters for us all instead of that song that made them cry or your most recent heartbreak for me poetry is not something you do because it might get you laid not because chicks dig artsy dudes who can touch and feel their emotions poetry is something i do because i am human and as a part of this dying humanity in the eyes of the sheep who say they are revolutionaries but collect facts they say they are creating a flow of consciousness but instead they live in a glass bubble where water does not flow into waterfalls but crashed into walls.  Lying in their own definition of passive rebellions that do nothing but talk and with those words they sit still and mark not the history of spoken word but only to expel their own thoughts and feelings as they should be my own when i know that my thoughts and freedom are the dying hope of this country but yet no poet white black yellow brown or red says a damn thing worth listening to so i sit and write these words instead.
