They tell you what
Is coming next
To lay the scene
And the context
Warning some
Not to resist
While some decide
Who can exist
The tables are turned
Freedoms taken
And to the core
Society shaken
Now a quickly
Changing world
A different future
Does unfold
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
People today
So filled with rage
But only if
They have a stage
Showing off
Their tiny mind
In some strange way
Hoping to find
A kind of release
From all the strain
The hurt in mind
And all the pain
But thought it takes
Not through fear
And time will tell
If they will hear
Reason
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
It’s something I
Try to define
How they make you
‘Fall in line’
People shaping
Is what they do
Programs set
For me and you
For social order
That’s what they say
But it’s comply
You must obey
In their schemes
They did find
Just how to control
Your will and mind
But to what end?
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
Shame on them
The ones who are
Just not normal
So very far
From what we need
To see and be
They just don’t like
Our unity
It holds a threat
We just can’t hide
Their plan of conquer
And divide
Is clearly plain
And seems so set
But still I think
There may be yet
Time…
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
Another life
Before this time
It seems as though
It was not mine
A different chapter
In a book
That once you read
And now mistook
As just a film
Stuck on rewind
A faded episode
That stays in mind
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
Caught we were
In time and space
Between that rock
And a hard place
But what they say
Is take a few
Sleep on it
You’ll feel like new
But they can’t know
That in the deep
The mind can’t rest
Even in sleep
So round the thoughts
Are doomed to go
Until the way
Does think to show
Itself…
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
They taught us what
To think and feel
Not quite knowing
What is real
But deep down
With instinct lost
Well see the burden
The awful cost
Of handing over
Freedoms gate
And waiting for
The inevitable fate
Of time…
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
When you start
To find your weird
You’re not quite sure
If life has steered
You in that way
Or if it just
Was actually
An absolute must
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason (on Kindle Unlimited)
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
