Demockracy


There were selfish celebrations

While we were locked inside

Salubrious salutations

Meant irony did not hide.


Pain, anger and dirt fills

The way that we all feel

Going around in circles

Like a hamster in a wheel.


Once you’ve seen the bigger picture

You can never then return

To believing shallow scripture

That the bourgeoisie then burn.


It’s a time of utter travesty

And Orwellian hypocrisy

Getting hoodwinked by humanity

In deceptive dead demockracy.


Distraction taco


Smoke and mirrors wed

Inhaling reflected tobacco

Getting filled with dread

By a distraction taco


Take your eye off the ball

As they bounce you out

While they have it all

And the truth you doubt


Political Punch

Overflowing the jug

Crumbled credit crunch

Swept under the rug


When you watch TV

Believing their proof

Blinded by fuckery

And don’t see the truth.


The less you know


The more that you learn

The less you know

People grow concerned

Like Pinocchio’s nose


Falsity is believed

By conduit of media

Minds malicious; mislead

Fear amplified by tedium


They turn us into drones

While we fly their flags

Social media, iPhones

Distracting hashtags


It’s a sad situation

Absurd and obscene

For a blinded generation

Watching television screens.
