I am Society



I am society

I am the mind

I am greedy

I am the kind


I am love

And I am peace

I am what you

Think of me is


I twirl and twist

And stop the change

I break the bottle

And shift the phase


I am Mighty

I am a Beast

I can be tasty

But I can be least

Least bothered

Least concerned

Lest you make

Me feel


I am perfect

I am time

I am mortal

I am fine


I am a story

I am a tale

I was the king

And the angel


I am cold

Cold like the mountains

And I am warm

Warm

When the sunshine beats

When the grenades fail

I am the blanket

I inhale

All your sorrow

All your grief

I am old

And I am ancient

But I am patient

I am the society

    "Beast
    I can be tasty" - I did not like this line, could have been better.
    Also, I did not like the font. You cud have arranged the lines like a poem, which would look more catching to the eyes.

    And about the poem, this is one of your best. Copyright it lest someone else takes this gem away.

    :)

    Somehow I find that line unsuitable for this poem, it cud have been expressed in dif way maybe. Just an opinion and you might not agree, which is fine. :)

    Otherwise the poem is beauty. :)

    BTW, blog updated I.

    Good one!

    I kind of felt you ended it abruptly...why dont you add some more and bring it down gently ?

    And btw what wrong with your format..the words are all close together with no space...would've looked so poised in a proper poetry format.
