Everything backwards but who wants to listen?
Watch while they celebrate a broken system.
Worked to death before enjoying retirement,
Beaten into submission and told to be silent.
No real justice in sight, everything seems fake,
Turn those black mirror screens off and wake.
Believed in lies for decades, spinning out of control,
We all need to come together like one unified soul.

Good write SM. I'm a broken record. My record says - you knows it - ET, ET, ET,.....lol.
Haha E.T. coming soon, directed by you? Lol.
I hear your voice and have felt the same way now at the end it is no better. That is life in a sea of people each scrambling to keep their head above water by climbing on top of others. A good write my friend
Insane times indeed.
definite fav
Means a lot, thank you!
Powerful piece, most welcome
And how, Shaun...and how. We have been taught to accept exhaustion as virtue and obedience as peace, then wonder why so many people feel empty and powerless. You said it plainly and powerfully. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Insane pal isn't it, we are in Satan's little season no doubt?
I agree with your message. Its one of a sympathetic will. Nice write.
Thank you.
Agree with you- we should unite, but how do you convince people to come together to work out a solution- the catch is there
