    Cronulla Race Riots

    Hey, I'm a drummer and i i've only recently just started writing lyrics so yeah, give me some feedback.

    Another night
    Another fight
    Another pack of cigs
    Another white suburbanite
    Dreaming of heights that can't be reached.

    Because brawls aren't like they are on TV
    You can't close your eyes when Shiit gets queezy.
    You swing untill your knuckles bare bone
    Especially when you're hitting close to home.

    I prayed for inspiration,
    God gave me a civil war
    To bring pen to paper
    And make a nations Jaw fall

    How many times....
    Have you caught an awkward eye
    And looked around for your own skin type

    How many times....
    Have you used racism as a punchline
    Not knowing that punchlines pan out
    and form punching lines.

    How many times
    Have you sent your children back to the stable
    After knocking their ego down
    And explaing life isn't a fairy tale.

    Dont kid yourself kid.
    They want someone to think deep
    They need another soldier
    With black boots on their feet.



    Uh, i wrote this about all the race riots that are going down in my home town Cronulla at the moment.

    ouch.. this needs much work.


    Your vocabulary was very small. Your imagery and emotion were off. Your structure was chopped up and that threw off your flow aswell. You need to work on some of these things before you get to be a good poet.



    pS. leave links to poems that you have left feedback on because if you dont they will close this thread and you wont be able to get feedback on it.


    word..


    you can feed mine if you want! lol
