The question asked… (poetry)

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?

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… (poetry)

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

It’s taken a turn… (poetry)

~ MKW Publishing ~ Leave a comment

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

We’re told to try… (poetry)

~ MKW Publishing ~ Leave a comment

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

How is it that… (poetry)

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?

How can a year… (poetry)

~ MKW Publishing ~ Leave a comment

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

I look around… (poetry)

~ MKW Publishing ~ 2 Comments

I look around

At all this mess

A thickening plot

Of unfolding stress

Just how much

Can people take

Being pushed

So that they brake

What they took

Has gone so fast

Our future dream

A thing of the past

I guess for some

It’s hard to believe

So, in a way

We need to grieve

For what we’ve lost

And what won’t be

Replaced by a disturbing

New reality

Rhyme and Reason

There is something…(poetry)

~ MKW Publishing ~ Leave a comment

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

Never before… (poetry)

~ MKW Publishing ~ Leave a comment

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…
