2 birds in a cage

MR.apocalypse

 

I'm tired of watching 2 birds in a cage

sing squawk and beak at each other

you refuse to fly away from your cage

because you love your cage

 

your 2 birds in a cage

one is red and one is blue

you just want that battle 

that feeds your ego

 

because your so much better than the other

so much smarter than the other

but when you take a step back 

you realize your not so different

 

you are both idiots who choose to be in a cage

    Were you allowed to make me laugh out loud with your metaphor? La dee! How beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a delightful poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

      one thing I've learned about talking about complex issues is 1.always add humor (i least i think its funny to point out how absurd things are) and 2. make your point as simple as you can make it. because when you dumb down a complex issue and make it feel like your reading a poem for a child it really kicks that level of "oh this is actually really stupid". and i find that so funny. thank you for your words
