Mixed Up Memories
Everyone stakes a claim
all playing their fucked up games
some drink addled
some drug addled
the rest grief junkies
remember those days
nothing in the cupboard
respect
none given
none taken
ah mind when ye were banged up
barely a friend gave a thought
family what's that?
those day's when the clock dragged
funny how! now yer gone
yer a workin class hero?
a man of the people
everybody has a story to tell
drunken
sunken
singing a song
everyone staked a claim
truth is
i gave a fuck!
people came crawlin from their rocks
to show the world
they're a bunch of .....

I feel like if I felt confused, I would be lowering my own intelligence--
So I'm going to accept whatever meaning about people this had and try not to untangle anything--
But I must ask--Although this clearly points to people being animals?
This is definitely a place of mixed up memories--Many views on many scenarios.
What were you trying to say?
About people?
How they are?
WHAT they are?
Although having a mixed up story is fine and all--What was your inspiration?
This is obviously angry--But angry at WHAT exactly?
I'm all for getting behind a reason for rage, but confusion weighs out whatever meaning I could have found here.
Confusion and agitation.
What is in the words?

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated x
Your absolutely right and i will try to cover all points,
There is much confusion in the writing which at best guess reflect's the confusion within me
at the time of writing, how people behave when someone dies, people who weren't interested in a person's life taking over that person's death, owning that death and insisting the world watches every brutal display carefully constructed for the audience.
I hope that part makes sense
What were you trying to say?
About people? about Hypocrites
How they are? yes about how they can be so in their element when everything is so wrong.
WHAT they are? yeah i suppose it was me venting about how frustrating it can be dealing with what people are, you know that thing we do, more necessity that desire to humour people for other peoples benefit but inside your just screaming the opposite
Inspiration.. Dad died, it was very public, you know that saying never let the truth get in the way a good story, i really does apply here, some people who were never in his life took the platform so to speak and have yet to step off, truth is i can't say what i really feel publicly because that person has created a false reality for himself and his groupies around the world just see a victim.
it is Angry confused and agitated, that really is what's in the words
It did feel good to release it, so it's not all bad x

I am glad that you were able to give out your words in some fashion or another--
The thoughts inside your head at the time are not something that should remain simply in there--
And it made for a creative read--
With your words, I understand your poems meaning much more--
It was truly lovely--
But also very, very maddening.
