We’ve really gone, So very wrong
Something’s up, For far too long
We closed our eyes, And no-one spoke
But in the minds, We’re all so woke
And watching now, The world descend
Down the drain, While we pretend
Someone cares, That we elect
There for money, Not to protect
Just simply being, A guise to lead
While taken by, That thing called greed

I’m not quite sure
We’ve got in hand
Or really maybe
Understand
The state of things
Of where we are
Of how it managed
To go this far
The time before
Could never last
The way it was
Is now but past
Keep up, the world is changing…

At first it seemed
All right and good
But soon revealed
To be Stepford
A smile, a wave
A ‘friendly’ stare
And every day
They seem just there
You try and run
But see they’ve followed
And in that town
Your soul was swallowed
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
It’s something that
We can’t escape
Knowing they set
And they did shape
What we see now
Before our eyes
A dastardly plan
So riddled with lies
A plot was hatched
And what they stole
Was more than just
Complete control
But maybe one day
We all will see
The truth at last
Reality

Nothing is lost
If nothing is tried
An empty life
If you try to hide
A mask of self
That must be shed
No fear for a path
That you must tread

There are two things
That I do see
Should be noted
Importantly
The first is simple
Its loyalty
With that in hand
And secondly
What seals the deal
Is honesty
With those two things
There’s a quality
That you just can’t buy
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
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
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’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?
