I wanted what

I thought I knew

Something that

Just wasn’t true

Age has taught

I never knew

Within the lies

Just what was true

There was so much

To just think through

So left it was

And something new

Became…

(c) K Wicks

Rhyme and Reason

 

 

We fought for what

Was right and good

But nobody wondered

If they should

Be clear about

What’s right and wrong

And thought that numbers

Would make them strong

But in the end

When evil reigned

It was too late

To be contained

Motive revealed

Did show at last

To take your future

They controlled your past

(c) K Wicks

Rhyme and Reason

There were ideas

And tales to tell

Of words and meaning

I’m under their spell

Indeed there really

Is much to say

And with just words

I try to covey

All the thoughts

Inside my brain

It’s getting harder

To contain

Them

(c) K Wicks

Rhyme and Reason

Of life we try

And muddle through

Trying to tell

What’s fake from true

Something’s hidden

If only we knew

The secrets kept

By the chosen few
