Inconsequential Gulls

Neville

Inconsequential Gulls

 

Just listen to all those inconsequential gulls

not a single one has much to say

But nevertheless, each one of them is spewing

misconceptions and half truths

down the necks of unsuspecting fledglings

Those not necessarily hungry

but incessantly mewing and craving attention

        Your talking about MP's again, what a load of misconceptions and non truths spew from their beaks.

          Well crafted dear poet
          Especially because it’s a sweet way of satire filled with truth
          Those are the great politicians we choose
          Well penned

          • Neville



            Whether they like it or not .. there is a whole lotta truth in what you have dared to leave here .. and for that, I thank you ............................................ Neville

            Methinks I know folk like gulls who crave attention by incessant mewing. Agree too with Dusk that your words spell deeper meaning than just inconsequential - good write my friend.....x

                .. and all
                chasing crumbs
                leaching off, of
                society's rubbish..
                Gluttony, was an all consuming
                evil
                before Theology: ever existed!
                (a great write, dear Poet)
                and thank you, for letting me vent a little as well
                by helping inspire my little scribbled reply

                • Neville



                  I invariably do so like and look forward to your venting ....................................cheers L.B πŸ™‚

                    Not to be a downer but hidden beneath your message is the ominous winds of the demise of democracy.

                    • Neville



                      I have my suspicions too Suresh ................ many thanks kind sir for chipping in and helping to keep my spirits up .. Have a FAB Sunday ............ Neville
