Scream A Little
Scream A Little

The world is big and round
But it don’t spin on its own.
You got to give it a little nudge sometimes.
A little push –
A little shove –
You’ve got to scream a little.
The powers that be
Won’t let you be.
You got to refuse a little sometimes.
A little “no.”
A “that ain’t so.”
You’ve got to scream a little.
We all want to be nice
And play by the rules.
Well, not all of us.
Almost all of us.
When that viper strikes and pricks a vein
You’ve got to scream a little.
I said – Scream A Little
While you still can.

Thank you. A lot of people
Thank you.
A lot of people feel willing and enabled to tell you who you are. Sometimes you just gotta disagree.

Scream A Little'
I loved the opening stanza on this write mark.
I took alot from this piece: In order to make things happen we need to initiate change, put the effort in...or step back a little to view the real picture.
'Scream A Little' -make a fuss if necessary, make your voice heard-
DEbs
Yeah. The term "Scream a
Yeah.
The term "Scream a little" itself seemed a bit of a contradiction. After it came to me I wanted to make something of it and this poem was the result.

Really enjoyed this Mark, we have to create our own destiny in life, and sometimes that includes a little assertiveness !

Right on the money. Only I
Right on the money.
Only I don't tend to be that way myself.
