Poetry
I would rather be homeless, than kill for a kingdom.
I would rather eat garbage, than delicacies with a war lord.
I would rather work than be bought for a price.
I would rather die than to live without you.
I would rather take the time to be simple
I would rather smash my computer to the ground
I would rather be a peaceful servant
I would rather taste your lips over mine
I would rather burn every well of oil
I would rather crush every automobile
I would rather build a close knit community
Than build more highways down to hell
I would rather take the time to fix it
I would rather tell you when I’m wrong
I would rather sleep when I am tired
Than burn away my brain cells
I would rather go when I am ready
I would rather kiss and then go tell
Than live a life of loneliness
And wander ashamed of who I have become
I would rather make things fresh and new again
I would rather remove the world’s pollution
Than take more than I can use
And send it back to choke my children
I would rather stay right here beside you
Than go and find some other way
And live a broken life without you
You would rather love me how I am
I would rather pretend I am someone I can not be
Than admit that it is only you and me
And nobody cares but you my love
You would rather stand with me
Rather than drain away the joy from you
And make things all fouled up
You take me by my swollen hands and fill them like a cup
And I would rather die than to live without you.
