Poem: "Resistance Is Futile"

Resistance
Is futile
Said the man
Yeah but you
Gotta
Push back
When you can
The thing to do
Is to rope off
No go zones
What will be
Will be
Except not
There
It’s good
To stumble
Even better
To fall
But you best
Be sure ya
Really had
A ball hey
The key
Is to know
You always
Can start
Again
But also
When and
How you
Can’t see
The angle if
You are too
Close in
Or even
See life if
You belive
In sin
Better to
Be a
Rollin stone
So
Go moan
For man
Forget about
The promised 
Land we
Were there 
But didn’t
Know it so
I played
A game
Of telephone
In my
Mind and
That
Became
This
And now
I live
With it

  1. I'm happy sitting with this, just rereading it. It's different every time, like reflections on water. — Deborah
