Fight The Power
sorenbarrett said:
I was brought up in public schools and was brainwashed only now at seventy five has some of it fallen away but private schools seem even more of a brainwashing (maybe in a different way) and theirs seems more of a tattoo than a washing it is permanent. Those that do not defer to conformity are crushed in either system, what we consider the free world is an illusion little different than that of communism or any fascist regimen or religion dominated state. Well written

Shaun, this is unapologetic from the first line to the last. I especially enjoyed how the poem keeps its focus on challenging assumptions while expressing your own experience without hesitation. It leaves the reader with something to wrestle with, and I always appreciate poetry that sparks reflection. Wonderful write, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Shaun, this was a fun read. I smiled as soon as Jippy\'s name came up, and the Bandcamp nod at the end tied it together nicely. Always good to see artists getting a little well-deserved appreciation. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Shaun, this is an engaging piece. It captures the fascination of hearing ideas that challenge the mainstream and invites readers to wrestle with them for themselves. Whether people agree or disagree, it certainly gets the conversation started. Wonderful write, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Shaun, this has a real conversational energy to it...like you\'re just saying exactly what\'s been on your mind without dressing it up. I especially appreciate where you land in the end...trying to rise above the noise instead of feeding it. Great write, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Subtle ending rhyme to a poem that entertains gives flavor. All conspiracy theories have to make just enough sense to make one think or they can not be accepted as viable. The conspiracy theory about conspiracy theories is that the real plots and intrigues are clever enough to not make sense and therefore never become conspiracy theories.

Shaun, that image of people lifting their eyes instead of keeping them fixed on their phones really stood out to me. Whatever else someone takes from the poem, that alone is a worthwhile reminder. Great job on this, my friend. Love the MC Ren reference! πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

A pushback against over feminization of the male gender. I hear what is wrong with masculinity as the theme and would have to agree in Viva la difference. Well written
