"I Have One Too !" ... A Poem written by Big Virge 16/3/2007

Just Like ... " Dr. King " ...  

... I Have One TOO ... !!!  
 
But It Seems MY Dream Is WASTED On YOU ... !!!  
 
Those Who CHOOSE To IGNORE .................................. Proof ....  
That Those Who RULE Have Reduced Some Youths ...  
To ... UNCOUTH Crews NOW WILLING To SHOOT ... !!!  
 
While THEY PROTECT Their WEALTHY Friends ... !!!!!  
Who COLLUDE And ABUSE Whilst Feeding FAKE News ... !!!!!  
 
They USE Issues And TV Crews To INDUCE Feuds ...  
That Reduce The Truth To ... " MIRAGE-Like Pools " ...  
 
See Those NOT Schooled Are EASILY Fooled ...  
By What They Say About The World TODAY ... !!!  
 
When Kids Get SHOT ...  
It's The SAME OLD SONG And Usual Response ...  
 
" Bureaucrats Are SHOCKED ! " ...  
 
"What On Earth's Going On ?" ...  
 
Well Pretty Much THE SAME ...  
As THEIR ... " WAR GAMES " ... !!!  
 
"Aren't CHILDREN KILLED By Bombing Airplanes ?!?"  
 
Well OF COURSE They Then Have Ways To VINDICATE ... !!!  
 
"We're making a stand,  
against terrorist plans,  
to protect the state !"  
 
DREAMING Up ... INDEED ... !!!!!  
 
How About Contrive ...  ?  
To let The INNOCENT DIE For OIL Pipelines ... !?!  
So That They Can BLEED The Survivors ... DRY ... !!!  
 
Dreams Like THESE Are NOT My Type ... !!!  
 
I Dream of Times When ENERGISING Lives ...  
Becomes What DRIVES Our Leaders Minds ... !!!  
 
PROTECTION For The OLD When They're On Their Own ... !!!  
And PROTECTION For The Young From Those with GUNS ... !!!  
 
... Criminals And YES POLICEMAN ... !!!!!  
 
Those Who Seem To SHOOT For FUN ... !?!  
 
And THINK ... " APOLOGIES " ...  
Will Then APPEASE Their Families ... ?!?  
 
It's CLEAR Their Dreams Become NIGHTMARES ...  
When It Is The Police ... They SEE In Them ... !!!!!  
 
I Dream of PEACE And LESS Problems ...  
And LESS Repeats of KILLING SPREES ... !!!!!!  
 
Affecting Parents ... of CHILDREN ... !!!!!  
 
My Dreams Consist of So MUCH MORE ...  
And Will PERSIST To ... My Deaths' Door ... !!!  
 
Which May Be SOONER Than I'd Choose ...  
Because of SHOOTERS ... NOW In Use ... !!!  
 
THINK It ... Through ... !!!  
 
Can We Blame The Youth For DREAMS They're SHOWN ...  
of LUXURIOUS Homes In ... AFFLUENT Zones ... !!!  
ZONES With Keys That The WEALTHY Hold ... !!!  
For Companies ... Where SELL OUTS Go ... !!!  
 
My Dream Is For The People To FIND Their SOUL ...  
And STOP The EVIL Who ... CONTROL ...  
And POLITICISE ... About OUR LIVES ... !!!  
ESPECIALLY When Young People ... DIE ... !!!  
 
The CURRENT Trend of ... Youthful DEATHS ...  
Is Bound To Make MORE People ... "TENSE" ... !!!  
 
VIOLENCE ... Is NOT A GAME ... !!!  
People Should PLAY ... When Bullets SPRAY ... !!!!!  
 
So Who's To BLAME ... ?!?  
 
The GUNS and CHAINS And BLING Brigades ... ???  
Who ... STATESMEN CLAIM ...  
 
... "Have Got NO BRAINS !" ...  
 
Well Some of Them YES It's ... Fair To Say ... !!!  
But What FUELS Them To EMBRACE These Ways ... !?!  
 
MUSIC That BIG LABELS ... Take ...  
And Then PROMOTE For FINANCIAL GAIN ... !!!  
 
Or ... Video Games For Kids To Play ...  
Where Images SOAK Inside Their Brains ...  
of DRUG LORD WARS And GUN Escapades ... !!!!!!!!!  
 
My Dreams Reduce THESE Corporate Crews  ...  
Who Are QUICK To USE ... ANYTHING That SELLS  ... !!!!!  
EVEN If The Youth DON'T Use Them WELL ... !?!  
 
Technological Tools ...  
Are NOT ... " ALL GOOD " ... !!!  
Like NUCLEAR Bombs ... !!!  
Or Guns NOW USED For INSIDIOUS Moves ... !!!  
Do You GET What It Is I'm Saying To You ... ?!?  
 
From MUSIC To The ... " INTERNET " ...  
Corporates COLLECT For THEIR RICH Friends ... !!!  
Whether Or NOT They Cause ... PROBLEMS ... !!!  
 
They'll Be ABROAD BEHIND ... " SAFE Doors " ...  
When Street Wars SOAR And ... Young Blood POURS ... !!!  
 
A NIGHTMARE YES And THAT's For SURE ... !!!  
Their Causes PRETEND To ... Help The Poor ...  
 
I Dream of PEACE And HAPPIER Times ...  
Where Guns and Knives ... AREN'T Glamourised ... !!!!!  
 
And RACE ISN'T Used To DIVIDE Our Minds ... !!!  
 
Like Doctor King I ... CHERISH Life ... !!!  
And SHOW THIS Through The Words I Write ... !!!  
 
I Deal In What's REAL But Dream Sometimes ...  
About A World Where ... WE DON'T Hurt ... !!!  
 
So I Hope My Words ...  
AREN'T WASTED On YOU ... !!!!!  
 
Cos' When It Comes To ...  
..... " A Dream " ....  
of ... LOVING Human Beings ...  
 
Just Like Doctor King ...  
 
" I Have One Too ! " .......
