At this time

It can be hard

Seeing the need

To be on guard

Making you feel

Lost and confused

It’s by design

You’re being abused

While they scrabble

For more control

Reality

It takes its toll

What next they’ll do

I can’t quite tell

But every day

Brings fresh new hell

(c) K Wicks

Rhyme and Reason

 

How could we predict

And really know

That we’d be in

Such a shit show

It seems to have gone

From bad to worse

It feels unreal

And quite perverse

Now we’re told

These are the rules

Treating us like

We’re children or fools

There is another agenda at play…

(c) K Wicks

Rhyme and Reason

There are some people

It’s clear to see

Have been brought up

To think poor me

It’s never fair

Can’t catch a break

But in real life

They’re on the take

Motivated

To steal and lie

As they are shown

It gets you by

Oh what a time to be alive…

(c) K Wicks

Rhyme and Reason

It’s very strange

Where we are

What has rolled out

It’s gone too far

Manipulated

We all have been

The lies they’ve told

Are just obscene

But here we are

Now in this mess

Surrounded by weird

And untold stress

Fingers crossed

We find a path

And minimise

The aftermath

(c) K Wicks

Rhyme and Reason

What came before

Is now the past

Something new

Is unfolding fast

Keeping up

As best I can

So many twists

Since it all began

Shutting down

Your liberty

Believe what we say

Not what you see

Think for yourself

While you still can

And question what

May seem like a plan

(c) K Wicks
