Parasite
I'm alive
I find that a surprise.
I lost my sight.
Mostly just hypnotized.
Can't see the light.
Can't stand upright.
Wont attempt to fight.
No soldiers plight.
No courageous might.
Just endless night.
Just anger and spite.
I'm so uptight.
No more twilight.
No prayer to recite.
I'm just a parasite.
When you sleep, I bite.
I find that a surprise.
I lost my sight.
Mostly just hypnotized.
Can't see the light.
Can't stand upright.
Wont attempt to fight.
No soldiers plight.
No courageous might.
Just endless night.
Just anger and spite.
I'm so uptight.
No more twilight.
No prayer to recite.
I'm just a parasite.
When you sleep, I bite.

Re. Parasite
I only see that the human being deserves much respect, recognition,and not being a thing overlooked.But respected and given due worth as such, We are poets after all, we must be given higher esteem and Love.

We need kindness and respect and Love, is better that given money
with one hand, and the other hand slaps in the face.

Early in the poem I noticed the use of vowel sound rhyme to maintain connectivity while avoiding monotony. That is good poetry. I enjoyed this one a lot.
