2011 Poem A Day Challenge - Day 14

For today's prompt, write an "ain't none of my business" poem. This poem could be about something that is none of your business. Or a poem about something with which no one else should be concerned. It could be a poem about someone ignoring something that maybe they shouldn't. It could be a poem that's silly. Or a poem that's serious. It ain't none of my business what you decide to write about, though I admit I'll still be interested to see what develops.

=================================

Sorry this wasn't written last night. While running, I tweaked my left foot, and pull a muscle. It caused pain whenever I put pressure on it. So when I got home, I took some Tylenol PM to help reduce the swelling and allow the muscles to relax. All of the muscles relaxed, and I got a good night's sleep. So I apologize for that.

I know that there are a lot of interpretations of this poem, but to be honest, my first response was being pissed off at Robert. He dares to tell me that ANYTHING is none of my business? I am a voting American with a computer and an Internet provider. As far as I am concerned, my business is pretty much whatever I want it to be. I will speak up and speak up about whatever and whoever I want, whenever I want, because it is my right to do so. That is the mentality that flashed. It is the mentality of the Internet at large. Technology that is supposed to enlighten and unite has not quite hit the mark yet. The majority of what I see out here (and I include myself in this assessment) makes me think that we've merely found the means to look like twice the idiot in half the time. And that nothing up to including facts and common sense will stop from becoming a spectacular high speed series of train wrecks that would make even Charlie Sheen wince.

Trick is, is it enough to make it into a poem?...

=================================

Built for speed and built for endurance
There is no limit to how far I can go
Information rests at my fingers
There isn't anything I shouldn't know

Heed the message that I am sending
Don't have much patience so I'm talking loud
Ready or not I'm bringing opinions
To the heavens from the underground

I am the way of America
I am the light of the world
I am the pinnacle of power
I am the voice that is heard

People may I have your attention?
I have the time and it's on my side
I found the means of sharing my views
Without appointment you try to hide

It doesn't take much and I am done
Another voice just filled with power
I'm in control of this situation
Any place on earth at any hour

I am the way of America
I am the light of the world
I am the pinnacle of power
I am the voice that is heard

Louder than I have to be
Stronger than my enemies
Never sleeping always focused
Another pedal of the nodus
I'll scream loud and pound my chest
Prove to you that I'm the best
Common sense is history
What makes you think you will stop me

I am the way of America
I am the light of the world
I am the pinnacle of power
I am the voice that is heard
