They want us lost
And feeling alone
You’re a smaller threat
If on your own
And in these dark
And uncertain days
There seems no end
Like trapped in a maze
But something is up
That we can feel
What’s being said
Just doesn’t seem real
Nothing to see
With only their word
The lie is so twisted
It got too absurd
But now a lifestyle
It’s gone on so long
There won’t be much left
If we can’t just get on
Time is slipping away…
Rhyme and Reason
(c) K Wicks
In this new world
Which is quite strange
You’ll need to adjust
And rearrange
The way you thought
Or what you knew
It’s no longer clear
Just what is true
There seems to be
An agenda at play
Rolling out
More day by day
What came before
Now feels long past
What was once normal
Is changing fast
Rhyme and Reason
(c) K Wicks
And not benign
What is unfolding
Is by design
In no way subtle
In fact hell bent
With obvious tones
Of malicious intent
For your safety
Was a clever way
To get all the folk
To do as they say
But with our eyes
In reality
What’s being said
Is not what we see
So shut away
We must now wait
For them to decide
And roll out our fate
Rhyme and Reason
(c) K Wicks
Every day
They change the game
Moving the goalposts
Never the same
It’s really hard
To comprehend
Where this is going
And if it will end
What they have changed
Is the playing field
Pushing the people
Until they yield
With veiled bribes
Laced with threat
It does now seem
That this has been set
In motion and can’t be
Thwarted or slowed
We look like we’re headed
Down the long old road
To disaster
Rhyme and Reason

Volume 1 – Rhyme and Reason (published 2018) – available, volume 2 coming soon
It’s strange but all
I can presume
Is that the masses
Accept this doom
That has been set
Through clever disguise
With stats and figures
And twisted through lies
There won’t be what
We had before
We don’t even know
What is in store
The ones who think
It’ll be just fine
Seem not to know
This is by design
All I can hope
That this coming year
Will be less fraught
With gloom and fear
Rhyme and Reason
(c) K Wicks
Volume 1 published 2018 – volume 2 coming soon.
The question asked
Was how can we
Make the sheeple
Really see
What is there
Before our eyes
A dastardly plot
So riddled with lies
All the sensible
Logical folk
Are seen as mad
A bit of a joke
Strange to think
That people find
It odd to query
Or use your mind
Because it’s safer
For the blind to keep
Their self-denial
And stay asleep
It becomes more obvious
Quite plain to see
We’re not in the same
Reality
But were we ever?
Rhyme and Reason
(c) K Wicks
My first book of Rhyme and Reason poetry published in 2018. Volume 2 is on it’s way, 2020 has been motivational for trying to make sense of the world even more than before!
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
(c) K Wicks
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
(c) K Wicks
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
