Drones

by Dark Kitten   Sep 20, 2005


Drones, every one of them as they sit there,
In their jeans and their skirts,
Their jackets and their t-shirts,
Just waiting for when the day is over and they can leave,
Their minds so full of this useless information,
About science..like most of them will use that,
About history..they are not going to use that either,
About math....well we can use that,
Algebra on the other hand...that shit is just that, shit!!
As elders go on and on about the same old thing,
Over and over again each and every day,
Just sitting there, taking it like good little drones,
Because if they did not they would have to see that stupid counselor,
And you wonder why they are like this,
Depressed and weary and tired all that time,
Trying their best just to get along and get through the days,
Humans just make things so hard on themselves,
So very, very hard.

    I like how you make this poem sound "angsty" and depressing at the same time. I really enjoy your poetical style.

    Its was strong, and bitter. It seemed to have the "unflinchingly honest" factor that few are willing to just go out and say, which is what makes it a good poem.

    Good Writing!

    I liked this one very much. It seemed to have an amusing factor to it, slightly sarcastic. You kept the flow fluent throughout and only pointed out the necessary but in a detailed manner. I liked the reference to useless subjects; it made me smile because I know exactly what you mean. Very well done, I have no criticism for this one. Keep it up!
