For death, obviously there must be life, right? Well, if you actually think about living, really break it down, some things die, without life. Take, for example, a small, helpless chicken, spending it's entire "life" in a crammed cage. It's beak has been burned off, its feathers rotted off from the filth, it's eyes blinded from the ammonia, it's legs ripped carelessly off as its dragged from a cage, they as well are sometimes raped for the pleasure of the workers. Now, tell me, do you call that life? It isn't. So, here are some poems, a collection I call A Death in the Factory to honor those who were mistreated, abused, raped, mutilated, and killed, all for the pleasures of the human kind. Now, take a seat, an enjoy your dinner, your lunch, your breakfast, you think that is an egg, well I see it as a reason for all those deaths. The chicken being the victim, and you, the people, the murderers. You think it is just egg, please, I dare you to tell me again.

Sometimes when I say "I'm okay", I want someone to look me in the eyes, hug me tight and say, "I know you're not". I have felt like this many times in my life; as a kid, teenager and as an adult. I have seen many things in my life and felt even more things that has been horribly depressing... But I got up. I stood up to walk on for another day. I dealt with my emotional amnesia the only way I knew I could and that was by writing it out into poetry. I wanted to forget my pain and forget what I was going through. I needed that cut of the blade or a pill to drink to take everything away. My poetry became both my pill and my blade... Now I share the most intimate part of myself with the world. The part of me I kept hidden in the closet. The part I never thought I would ever present to the world. Now is the time I have to stop having amnesia about my emotions. It is time to learn, to better myself and to stand up and remember the things that I shut out like a voluntary amnesia all these years. Those who are offended after reading this - f**k you! If you are sad with me and willing to cut your wrist - I know how you feel! If you just enjoy the words - I love you! #679 in Poetry on 17/03/2018 #779 in Poetry on 18/03/2018 #807 in Poetry on 19/03/2018 #474 in Poetry on 22/03/2018
