I was not ready for this

Poetic Dan


Patterns of nature, we are nothing but learnt behaviour

 

This is why it took so long for my first thought to stop being, slap ya!

 

From my environment to the transmit vibration vision, violence was the biggest projection

 

To the point we become the pattern ourselves, blame backing all show and tell

 

Intellect finding every way to make sense of the reality to our senses, all while the rest passes us by.

 

Memories are not stored in the brain, the mind is not a machine that never gets an upgrade.

 

Life is way more than we could ever comprehend, as precise as we make the tools to dissect its only more questions that never end

 

The only answer is the responsibility in self reflection, all things change and so will our actions.

 

Once we understand we are all in this together, violence will become unheard off as we break the chains of previous patterns.


I'm stuck and I'm lost, think I left them to defend for them self

 

They say that's life and kids will be kids but what happened to me I didn't want for them.

 

Yet I'm sat having to watch my daughter use her phone video as defence, as tension grew between young impressionable brains.

 

As she ran down the street I'm so glad I knew she was already at home, as this could of be the last ever video.

 

This cycle we repeat thinking is not our responsibility will never create a harmonious society.

 

Is there a cure for the human condition that needlessly enjoys their creation of fear and intimidation.

 

I have my answer it's called alienation, to educate ourselves removing the complacent. The school system belongs back in the 1900s, with those that can't see their environment needs an adjustment.

 

You think it's all games and fun right now, but wait for the lessons life will hand out.

 

So you haven't been bullied your head of the pack but will you still stand tall at a friends funeral.

 

The joyrider you thought you'd see again, or the closer friend making late night deliveries.
How about the friend that got punched to hard or the one that took to many drugs. Then there is one really great soul that will take their own life leave behind her kids, all because she couldn't escape her thoughts.

 

If that doesn't get you try the heart breaking when find out your child didn't make it, then to feel all times you took life for granted.

 

See we can only keep saying a fire is hot, till it burns you and you know. life has plenty of bad moments and if I could educate the youth on one thing it would be this....

 

Don't bully each other when life is already going to give you a ride, enjoy this journey it's your time.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Yesterday I got informed of what happened to my daughter and friend on the way home from school, this world is sick and we are the cure. I wrote my thoughts at three different times in the day, I've put them all together so I can clear this vibration and start fresh. Always with much peace and respect

    A first year at Secondary School can be particularly horrid for some. Pushed into the holly bush as 'initiation' - and worse things!
    I cried when leaving Primary School, out of sadness - though it was cosy, nice, warm in attitude and outlook.
    Secondary School was not all bad for me, but I shed no tears on leaving.

      This is her 3rd year and she got it in her lower schools too!
      The more free the soul the more you want to knock you down.
      Always appreciate your time, thank you

      What a powerful write Dan. I do hope that your daughter is OK. I also hope that she can see bullies for what they are, they are complete ******* cowards who will get there comeuppance one day.

      I saw a news item last night that an ex world champion kick boxer is offering free tuition to children in self defence, this is to try and combat the knife crime that is plaguing the Midlands (and other areas).

        She is my friend although I've not seen her face to face but she texted this morning to say, she won't let them affect her but her friend was really shook up.

        There are so many answers to this but really it starts at home!

        Oh the school system!
        I despair everyday.

        It is like a monster machine.

        The government are worried about the mental health of our children but they will never reform these Machines.

          The only true answer is to stop putting them in, my next little light will not be going through the system. That responsibility is all mine and will not put them through this, education does not need to be in there hands!

          Always appreciate your time

            Well my eldest would love to be home schooled... but he also plans to live his life in isolation.

            Who are we to judge?

            A powerful read Dan and I must agree with its sentiments - we have but a short space of time here to prove that right is never held in the hands of bullies - - a compelling message runs through this fine piece of work my friend.

              Thank you, I just wish this one actually did more than just fix my inner sanctum 😉
              Always appreciated

              Sympathy Dan, I have no answers here but to agree with your words.

              Mt word Dan, you do write well and express yourself well when something really bites you.
              THis piece really does show how you have moved on and learned so much from searching your soul.

              Be strong.

              • Poetic Dan

                Thank you my friend, my cloud is slowly lifting.
                The support is always helpful as I freely express my self
