The Backwards Man (Part.2)

Shaunmatthewcpoetry

Still going in the other direction, return of the Backwards Man,

Had discipline since my Ju-Jitsu days, taught by sensei Stan.

They're begging to be one with the world, I'm against that,

Closing Stargate portals with a mummified Egyptian cat.

Who decides what things are pure fantasy versus a fact?

Your expecting Andy Burnham to save Great Britain?

Politicians live comfortably while we're in a concrete prison.

Staying away from all, heel to toe, heel to toe,

Wonder just how far back that I can really go?

    Good write SM. You know sensei Sam? Is he related to - oh, we knows him, a certain guy! lol.

    There is definite discontentment in this write and a challenge to others to think about the present situation. Well said

    One heck of a follow-up, Shaun. The absurdity keeps it fun, but underneath it there’s a real refusal to surrender judgment to politicians, crowds, or received wisdom. Heel to toe indeed. πŸ˜‚ Really enjoyed this, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›
