I give some thought
To where this goes
There are theories
But nobody knows
For sure what’s really
Going to unfold
Just sit tight
And do as your told
Is what they say
But it makes no sense
Treating us all
Like we must be dense
Lies and deceit
Right from the start
Each person picked
To play their part
In taking that
Which we hold dear
And replacing normality
With a landscape of fear
Rhyme and Reason

It’s taken a turn
And not for good
Who could foresee
This year we would
See our futures
And lives destroyed
With not a thought
Thrown into the void
Not one in which
There is an end
Or one from which
You can defend
What once we knew
Has really changed
Before our eyes
They rearranged
Our thoughts and lives
Nobody can know
What next will come
In this live shitshow
Rhyme and Reason
(c) K Wicks
We’re told to try
And do what we can
But the shit has really
Hit the fan
We’re in this together
A big fat lie
They swan around
And still deny
They haven’t got
A fucking clue
Of what is truth
Or what to do
The wildest claims
But no evidence
Shall have the direst
Consequence
A fallen nation
With no foe to see
Instead ground down
By tyranny
Rhyme and Reason

How is it that
We came to be
Living within
A calamity
Of epic proportion
A delusion grand
It’s really a struggle
To understand
Quite how it is
Here we’ve arrived
Stuck in a plot
That’s so contrived
With no escape
Or end in sight
As it all crumbles
To just sit tight
And let the ones
Who led us here
Continue to reign
With lies and fear
Is that really the new normal?
Rhyme and Reason
(c) K Wicks
It’s turning into
A tale of woe
Where once was trust
Now feels like foe
What they’re doing
Not trying to hide
For one to conquer
You must divide
It really is
A heinous crime
To take your life
And steal your time
Changing thoughts
And stirring hate
Just so they can
Manipulate
Us all
Rhyme and Reason

How can a year
Feel so long
The strangest one
That’s gone so wrong
Whatever plans
We thought we had
It started good
Then went to bad
So much delayed
And put on hold
Dreams and lives
Are now controlled
It’s hard to swallow
And really accept
The ones who lead us
Are blindly inept
And at their whim
Ourselves we find
While in this play
We’re all entwined
To whatever end
Rhyme and Reason
(c) K Wicks
I used to think
I was just perturbed
But now it’s gone
To full disturbed
Each little thing
Down to my core
Is telling me
There’s something more
Feeling like
A pawn in a plan
No longer sure
When this all began
By searching hard
I can but try
To separate
The truth from lie
(c K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
This is something
I cannot stress
Enough to you
And must impress
The seriousness
Of where we are
It’s happening
Gone way too far
But now it’s in motion
The wheels are set
What they want
Is a growing threat
In people’s minds
And what they say
Fear and compliance
It seems their way
Which brings a sadness
And is such a shame
But you must understand
This isn’t a game
This is your life
Rhyme and Reason
(c) K Wicks
Never before
Did I see
That all of us
Collectively
Have been held down
Our lives disrupted
By the powers that be
Who are corrupted
It’s not for our safety
Or our health
But just to add
A little more wealth
To their growing
Money pot
Stripping the rest
They want the lot
By taking down
The average folk
I guess to them
We’re just a joke
For wanting a life
And security
To them we’re just
Opportunity
To offer us more debt…
Rhyme and Reason
(c) K Wicks
I’m not sure what
We can achieve
If there’s no way
To ever believe
What’s being said
And being done
It’s been a debacle
Now it’s begun
Breaking down
What once there was
To create a new
Just because
This is what
The powers that be
Have now set forth
As reality
Rhyme and Reason
