And still the rhetoric, keeps being pumped out
Fear, Confusion, Shaming, in case any doubt
Media constantly leaks, “secret government policies”
But hides the dark facts, for which they owe apologies
More restrictive legislation, with no opposition
Numbing the masses, into silent submission
Promising rewards, with nonsensical roadmaps
Do you feel unsure, or cheated perhaps?
Have you been jabbed, in the hope of two weeks away?
Do you still believe that, they will do as they say?
Have you applied for a passport, to go to the pub?
Do you feel that you are better, than those not in your club?
Would you prefer the unclean, now just stick to their own?
Would it make you feel safer, in a good citizen zone?
Should the untreated, be excluded from your plan
Publicly shamed, along with a curfew for every man?
Are triple maskers, now more caring than single wearers?
Should pro choice believers, become yellow star bearers?
Is the coercive division, healthy, and moral in your mind?
Can you not see the damage being done to humankind?
As more culture is cancelled, and more history rewritten
Have you discovered a new high ground, in which you fit in?
Does the new normal, make you more politically correct?
While the politicians, are full of corruption, as many suspect?
Are you too, concerned about your child’s wellbeing?
Have you really considered, how they are feeling?
Has your child asked you, “ Will it ever get better”?
Was it difficult explaining, why their freedoms are lesser?
Or are you questioning, the enforced illogical insanity
Along with the social destruction, of the whole of humanity?
Perhaps, the “theorists” actually made some good points
Or does that admission, put your nose out of joint?
It only ends, when enough, really want it to end
And then it is possible, for us all to transcend
A collective, is where the real power is based
Unification, can win over, any battles that are faced
Or just settle in apathy, and content on furlough
Blinkered to those suffering, pretending to not know
Agreeing to the few, who tell us, they know best
This is now the time, this is now the real test
Just Testing
About the Creator
Warwick Holding
I’ve always been a storyteller, I’d love to say I was a writer, but I can’t. If people were even reading this on the toilet. I’d be humbled.
I write short, but true stuff, I try to mix honesty with humour, because it’s the only way I know
