New Age Politics

Firefoxsc

left or right

quit or fight

express an opinion

whether king or minion

 

friend or foe

yes or no

no middle ground

to be found

 

immigration or gentrification

truth or distortion

sleepless nights

courts threaten rights

 

democracy or aristocracy

enrage or assuage

abandon peace

leave freedom in pieces

 

country or states

black or white

we must be one

or we'll be done

    Excellent poetry with a obvious meaning behind it is always a good read; thanks.

    Good write Fox. Someone said 'New Age' is now 'Old Age'. Doh!

  • L. B. Mek

    Amen!
    (but sadly, nothing new
    about it
    just kids, playing
    with hand-me-down
    purposefully divisive
    ideologies and perspectives
    thinking
    they know better, than
    the last lot, who ruined it all
    for them
    while, ignoring
    that 'well behaved', silent child
    playing, alone
    in the corner...
    and on, on, on
    cyclicality
    recycles History, to give us
    that progressive New
    we so need, to feel
    like life, began
    when we did..)
