The Human Disease Poem by Ray Quesada

more profound than a man's mind
you find
on blotter LSD
or the sun on the horizon
as it's risin'
from the sea
is a swift and sudden light-speed
burst of mental clarity
thats there to see
and to perceive
for all humanity

We need to abandon the lies that we
so naively and blindly believe
so the earth can finally be free
and have some ease, peace, and relief

only recently i've been compelled
to translate and word this
and communicate to others
so they never forget they heard this
so while you're sittin'
listenin' with your brain
absorb the words I'm tellin' you
like the glistening cocaine
your drug dealer is sellin' you
a sudden rush hits you
as my words enter you intravenously
the efffects as you sit
with clenched fists
listenin' to a pissed genius speak ingeniously

And I will die for my words
nouns; adjectives; verbs
now my main objective on earth
is to mercilessly submerse
you in verse after verse after verse

I've always been a passionate person
destined and born
to be rhyming and versin' this
so ask yourself as a person
are you helping the Earth
or just hurtin' it
and worsenin' it?

Theres so much pain on this planet
but on TV we're watching comics
while underground destructions planned and
bombs built - hydrogen; atomic;
no guilt!
by evil, mad scientists
making crazy, frightening aparatus
and the Powers Elite keep us lazy
and in an unenlightened status
this is no exagerartion
theres no excuse or explanation
for your lack of contemplation
while you sit in vegetation
worshipin' war ships
and corporartions

And with your thoughts
just blowin' in the breeze
they can run the world as they please
kill people; animals;
make gas expensive; cut down trees
-theres an extensive list
to this
Human Disease
and consequence to this greed
our pety desires
fuel and feed
ferocious fires
and the pockets of liars
so they can comfortably retire-
and thats why theres:

Recession; Depression;
Aggression; and police Opression
24/7 on my television's reception
And the media is ever
so clever
and deceptive-
and America's Youth?
- so accepting and receptive
-It makes me panic; half manic;
and fuels my manic depression...
but it also gave me an obsession
with creative expression

We need to be more provocative and talkative
not so pitiful, superficial and stinking
instead of glorifying money,
power, and social status
start using more critical thinking
'cuz most of us are just the walking dead
living in another man's vocation
but if you understand a word i've said
you deserve a standing ovation!
the future leaders of nations
all need information
they need guidance, not violence
determination and patience
so many answers
are needed to significant questions

and the knowledge that words
are the most powerful weapons.
