Apologies to all MySpace, Sodahead friends-things have been nuts and I can't get caught up..but anyway, here's one of my "latest-in-progress"."Your POW"
Todat for once
I'm eating lunch
Not what I usually do
But I've been up
Since 5 o'clock
Forced notes thru a sweet tuned
In the "Easy Listening" queue.
This life is hell
Worse than the spell
Sleeping Beauty's years passed in
She got to dream
But I can't sleep
Alone for far too many years
But I won't marry one of you
I am P O W.
Not by my choice
Not by my voice
Not willfully consensual
I'm in this land
Where greed commands
Only thing I know for sure
I'm a Prisoner of War.
Hey, what went wrong?
I once was strong
And happy as a morning lark
But that's been gone
Too far, too long
Three thousand miles ago
Where we lived free and shared in peace
I'm talking 'bout
In the E.U.
Here I am
Ain't got no man
And no one stands
To surrender to
Though you tried to
Bend me, twist me break me too
You didn't succeed
I'm someone who still
Loves her homeland
More than you.
I haven't changed
I'm still the same
In my heart and my brain
And the more you demand
And seize and command
To force me to be you
I'm more your P.O.W.
All you did
Was teach me to hate
The things you pretend
Yet love my homeland
Even more.
This letter is
To who it fits
From your P.O.W.
