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…

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

The normal fears
That we have faced
Have been rewritten
And replaced
That there are those
Elected through charm
Who actually mean
To cause us harm
If it was nature
Throwing the curve
We’d find our feet
And then observe
How we can group
And organize
But not when trapped
In all these lies
The mental threat
Looms ever near
While slowly taking
What we hold dear
Through all of this
I can but hope
We make it through
And manage to cope
It’s a strange road ahead…

I say to you
Indeed good Sir
Of my plan
Do you concur
Oh really not
And something quite
How dare you Sir,
I’ll take that slight
It is agreed
I’ll not say when
We’ll settle this
Like gentlemen
(c) K Wicks
Some people can
It could be said
Drain your soul
While they spread
Their negative thoughts
They can’t contain
With no-one left
They can’t refrain
From trying hard
So bitter to stay
But you can choose
To walk away
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
When a thought
Escapes your mind
It slips away
And yet you find
It lingers still
And does remind
There was a thought
That you should find
Think harder…
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
When I thought
Of getting older
I really believed
I would be bolder
Be brave and fearless
Trying to find
The next adventure
Not stuck in mind
But age and time
A toll they took
Life goes on
And still I look
For myself…

It really is an important must
To know yourself and really trust
That there is dark trying to keep
Your senses numbed and you asleep
But understand, what now seems strange
Just open your mind and want for change
You can’t forget what you’ve been taught
But all the lies, they lead to thought
And in that thought, where you can find
A deeper truth and free your mind
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
There is much
That shapes the way
Of how we see
The world today
Perceptions change
And what we find
Is sometimes just
A different mind
Where once before
We thought that way
It is not then
But is today
(c) K Wicks

It can be such
A feast for the eyes
The beautiful colours
Of winters sunrise
It’s quite a treat
I have to say
Such wonderful colours
To start the day
