I wanna run
I wanna run so far away from here
the stench of this funky bull****
Is altering my coherence

Mass ejaculation
Supremacy fornication
raping the true seed of what it means to be free

I wanna run!
I wanna plant my feet in mother earth
and sprint my *** right on outta here
away from the mental strife
away from political knives
that keep on stabbing me repetitiously

I wanna run
I wanna run so fast that I rewrite scientific physiology
shatter technology, reverse the lingo of psychology
I'll be a Universal enima laced in potent stemina
To shake this nation back to its proper rotation
Are you feelin meh?

I wanna run!
I wanna run so swift that my feet no longer touch base
soar past some gazelles in a race
until I touch the nebula in space
with no hesitation in my pace

And if anyone ask you whats going on
you just tell them I felt like running

But you and I no, that this ain't gonna happen, Right?
So phuck it!.................I'll stay and fight!
But I can't stop thinking about how much I wanna run!

How much... I just wanna... run home!!!

This poem's social commentary elevates its importance. As a reaction to a less than perfect state of affairs, it is runninig away, a most appropriate statement. Its champion, the author, chooses to stand her ground and fight the powers that be. I celebrate the day that this poem was written. It does not strive for perfection, but holds truth to the litmus test of conciousness. :zipit:

I think that it expresses what you are saying to a "T".
