The Watchers

John Prophet

Watchers.

They watch.

From on

high.

From a

different 

realm.

They watch.

Eons 

pass 

and they

watch.

Generation 

after

generation 

they come.

Watching.

Seeing.

Noting.

Each 

epoch 

the same.

Leaders,

despots

followers.

Human 

nature 

reflects

the same.

Each epoch

the same.

On the 

edge.

Despotism 

 makes 

a run.

Always 

the same.

Each epoch.

Modernity.

Despotism, 

advanced

technology.

Bad juju.

      bad juju, lol
      if only
      the vindictive, despicable and abhorrent
      actions of the maliciously greedy
      can be excused away, so easily...
      (always good to let out, the frustrations
      thanks for sharing, dear poet)
