With Armstrongs boots
And Lennons mind
We could break free of captivity
Leave our bodies behind
Looking in from the outside
With a refreshed perspective
Analysing independently
Breaking free of the collective
Forgetting what our grey matter
Is conditioned
And concerned about
Remembering
Realising and Identifying
The false wealth
We can live without
Unlearn the toxic vision
Shared by the corporate classes
Time and love is wealth
Educate the masses
So called precious minerals
Fuelled by want and lust
Only blind fools yearn
For compressed carbon dust

Or shiny coal? I lost the plot. I put a friend's diamonds on me fire instead of coal, cos I had run out of coal. Couldn't see the harm in it, until me friend returned! lol.
😂😂😂 You crack me up Orchidee.
Forgetting what our grey matter
Is conditioned
And concerned about
Humankind is broken.

Yet there could be hope?
Unlearn the toxic vision
Words like these may unteach us 🤗
Hopefully. I'm probably as guilty as the rest of us but at least my eyes are open.
Thank you for reading and leaving feed back. It's been a while since I've posted on this site.
Take care - Syd
