A World That Was
There was a time once, when it all
seemed to fit ..
When the machine did what
it was told
and there was none of this shit ..
Long before
we were programmed and told
what to do ..
When we all had a conscience
and purpose
when our sky and the seas, were
still blue ..
Yes, there was a time once, when
everything clicked
long before AI or prefabricated truth
and all of this
mind numbing, fake news bullshit ..
Yes, there once
was a time, when our seas were
the home to
dolphins, whales and a whole
heap of fish ..
Not just chemicals, discarded
diapers, plastics
assorted waste and other such shit ..
There was a time
once when you could walk into
a bar without
fretting, neck one or two and walk
out again without
any fear of getting stabbed, shot
spiked or being
subjected, to all kinds of other shit ..
