"shame and spite hidden behind a flourescent screen, their form of protection"

Cyber Bullying. A fresh issue that faces a large mass of the teenage population world wide.
Bullying is illegal, most look at Cyber bullying as a safer approach to express their feelings towards a person as they have a veil in a sense to hide their identity aka a computer, phone or anything similar.
Not only is bullying in any way legal, but it also shouldn't be tolerated by those under its reign. Cyber Bullying may seem simple, easy and generally "okay" to do, Cyber bullying leads to poor grades, emotional panics, poor self-esteem,depression, and in some cases suicide.
According the the Sydney Morning Herald 1 in 3 teens are Cyber bullied, it doesn't target specific type of people, it's not the typical kid with braces and glasses, who has a tendency to wear his pants to high and snort, no Cyber bullying is a rapidly rising issue that feeds on any one it can. The difference between Cyber Bullying and typical bullying is the sneaky under the table masks and dark cloak-ness of it all. The bully with a click of a button can totally cover themselves up.
People who commit the Bullying can be charged by the police and those who are being bullied should keep all evidence of the "attack" and speak to a parent and the police ASAP.

"the boss has a boss who has a boss who has a boss, where do you hit the top of this foodchain"

Resisting the man.
Most feel obliged to resist those we are made to obey, rebelling in a sense.
But eventually we have to grasp the concept that one day we will need to follow the man in order to make a living for oneself. This fact isn't going to stop us rebelling. We resist until it's physically impossible to.
Why do we rebel? Is it all a matter of feeling we know better, or is it a matter of feeling we have to do things differently in order to portray who we are?
We refuse to be pushed around and put in place as human beings we feel the need to have options make our own decisions be our own person. The Man takes these away from us and we fight back or resist.

"some preach in the streets and demand attention, others sit quitely and recieve attention"

 "Preconceived Judgment"
Also known as prejudice, it is a having an opinion on a person or group with out proper knowledge or first hand experience with them. This judgment doesn’t have to be harsh or negative but generally it tend to be and this is were our society's lack of respect for diversity kicks in and people are left feeling like minorities.
A preconceived judgment on a group leads to Discrimination. Our society should not tolerate discrimination on any level and an excuse should not be "i didn't know". Being taught, told and convinced a group is a minority for any reason should be ignored we should learn to live by our own judgment form life experiences. 
Preconceived judgment starts at a young age generally from parent to child.
Don't be controlled by the opinions of others, make your own decisions from your own experiences.

"poets make tassles and toys with reality, dreamers make a new reality that they call their own"

Depression is a highly, almost overly used term in today's society but the darker side of depression is one that most people do not fully understand and hence shy away or judge the person facing it.
The accurate definition of Depression was; the feeling of being depressed, which honesty is the equivalent of asking what is pie and getting the answer a pie like food. Pathetic amount of respect lost for dictionary.com.
But when searching Depressed I received a more sensible answer; sad and gloomy, dejected.
Depression; the feeling of sadness to be gloomy and to feel dejected.
What most people don't understand about Depression is the more physical side of it or as most people say "cutting".
Cutting yourself or Self Harm seems scary and to most it really doesn't make sense or seem necessary and in most cases the person doing the harm does not really understand either.
Your body expects when you are hurt to feel pain, physical pain. For example when you fall over and scrape your knee it hurts physically. When you're hurting inside you don't feel physical pain  your body gets confused and that's why people sometimes find self harm necessary but don't fully compute why.
People today don't see depression for what it really is, they see it as a state were the person just needs to "pull things together", education on Depression is becoming more and more necessary as cases in young people are becoming more popular as well as effecting the building block basis of their education and basic skills.
