the first way i wrote it

poetry has to be written because for me it just dont flow right
when i sit down and type
the computers glare blocks my foresight
and i feel pressed to be integral and reserved rather than blunt and forthright
and to me the art becomes a lie
makes the reader keep scrolling up ....right?!
all i really want is for everything to make cents
and with all those cents ill buy common sense
cause these days its proven by bold evidence
that backwards is the go-to way so lets all hop the fence
no baby today is born with, in a sense, innocense
but a clean slate to dirty up...know the difference and fight indifference
these days, apathy is stupendous
but if they go too cold who will have hearts to defend us?
rather than clean up and throw away the trash we burn insense
cover up the stench of problems that sleep on benches
we wait our turn to talk but never intended to listen
yet again a birth right to indifference but not really because you cared if you bothered to mention
who has the upper hand? of course the person who has  less interest
