Broken And Proud Poem by Dave Alan Walker

Broken And Proud

Rating: 4.5


I'm standing
on the outside
looking down

People running round
trying to find their ground

But all they find
Is a government pound
Trying to make them
one of the crowd
Until they retire

Broken And Proud

You say when you need, you never tell except it have to share..there's no other way better than dissolve the real things in writing..as your writing is for us..feeding us with thinking...and Dave, you got nice pen with unlimited ink.. :) _Unwritten Soul

The poem nicely portrays the quality of life and plight of a common man in a modern society. People running round trying to find their ground

I like this poem. What an insight to the mediocrity of living...life is something more...and your poem makes us aware and feel it.
