Pseudo Democracy
Something sweeping, this wave is bright
All that was wrong is now alright
Extinguishing the flames of the future
Dragging us back into the sea of the past
Deceptions and divisions so painfully clear
Twisting technology, cashing in on caste
Superior races has such a familiar ring
Like killing in the guise of protecting
Mesmerized by power, after so much inept
Welcoming the wave, in drowning debt
Adrift in the tide of unwanted change
Lashing out in ways so strange
Paving the way for pseudo democracy
It looks the same but lacks all diplomacy
Freedom replaced with limitless power
Granted by the laws, the need of the hour
A friendly police state for you and me
Welcome to the age of pseudo democracy!

George's Fire
The country's on fire, as protest rage on,
The situation is dire, our civility has gone,
Our hope is for change, and a better tomorrow,
This is all very strange, when united in sorrow,
I'm crushed by the pain, and smell fear in the air,
As we stare at the stain, of our nation laid bare,
Tear gas was deployed, and rubber bullets sting,
Businesses destroyed, as the flash-bangs ring,
With a knee in his neck, for the whole world to see,
OMG what the heck, they killed that man on TV.

I sit on this app
Writing words into paragraphs
Praying the slightest line
Reaches the mind
Of a lost soul
That must unfold
Hearts don't matter
If one of my lines have hit you
Leave a comment
It only takes one
To save another

Question you won’t Ask him,
Already have answers your just not ready to hear.

Sometimes the most toxic rumours come from the closest Source in order to manipulate others to segregate you.

Keep them down, keep them down
They don't matter, let them drown
Look at them run, hear the screams
Scattered and divided, broken dreams
Overcrowded and ugly, so glad there's a glass
Imaginary societal, frosted class
Crests and surnames, give us rights
These coppers and gold, give us might.
The fog clears, quick release a distraction
Keep them occupied by the latest attraction
Provide the food, provide the munition,
Give them the tools for their own destruction
Good,
Scattered and divided, broken dreams
Look at them run, hear the screams
They don't matter, let them drown
Keep them down, keep them down7 0

An opinion is planted like a seed
Slowly watered and fed
Society is a great provider
Spring comes but when it buds,
only time knows.
You watch as it grows with sharp thorns,
Ready to defend its fruit
What will it be?
Sweet? Sour? Sharp?
Society is a cruel creator
But the roots grow deep
Embedded and stubborn
Weathered but never waivered
Always moving to new territory
And finally
When the time is right
An Opinion becomes an Opposition.12 0

What happened?
Its eye for an eye
Like for a like
Knife after knife
And chicks on the side
What are we doing to another?
What happened to
High for a five
Finding a girl to wife
Trying to provide
For each other
But
Each to their own
Individuals are unknown
Slowly we erode
And hide for cover
Only to be distant forever.....

How long do you long
To hear what you long to
Hear?
Would it lose meaning
Once months turn into years.

A liar is a liar and even when caught;
A liar will lie about the lies.
Cause they are liars...
And stay true to form.

Before judging anyone,
Remember ....
we all have made mistakes.
At some point,
you made a few too.45 8 2

Do you exist outside the limits of the world's View?
To see the perfect sky, so not blue.
Who would you become if you could let go of all your reservations you hold?
Would you walk out into the darkness
shadows of the night;
Would you feel free?
Free to be who you are?

"Nothing can change
If nothing changes."
- Unknown39 6
- _sabrina_da_spoonie @garydk7 well if you want something to change then change needs to happen to change things
- _sabrina_da_spoonie @garydk7 this saying has actually helped me in big ways within the last 2 years and I leant that change starts with the person seeking it.
- garydk7 Correct, a process leading to another process in the total outcome of a total change , leading to bigger better thing's gby.
- _sabrina_da_spoonie @garydk7
- garydk7 That's the spirit positive thinking breeds good outcomes. .
Home is a state of mind,
And not the structure we lay in.
For we can live in the most beautiful place
And still feel like we're not home.

I can hear the angels calling me..
They coming to set me free..
I don’t have no belief but the faith inside of me...
See we fall victim to a religion because it’s their prison..
Making them believe that they are the only ones that's privileged...
When will we see.. we are all perfectly me's...
Now look at what we believe..
We are in sin..
But sin is a lie within itself.. now lets take the time to understand our wealth.. Peace of mind will regenerate our minds to the most high divine...
Lets intertwine our minds and souls to understand what holds us close to our purpose of choice...
Can you feel the journey underneath your feet.. The vibrations of healing and peace..
As we all groove to the beat of that drum playing peace...
I can feel the angels energy..
They are surrounding me
Filling my mind with abundance.. Now I’m feeling free
Now my thoughts will be controversial to those who haven't explored there mental.. I can hear the birds chirping for me...
Move forward can't you see..
I am God, giving you the recipe
Take my energy and fly with me..
I promise you will see.
That's what god told me
I might sound crazy
But now im listening to the light that’s within me..
I understand belief through the faith that's profound in me.. Now the birds are chirpping for more poetry..
Are you catching on to the words I speak? Or was finding flaws what you seek?

frustration makes you zone in on what needs your focus; to bring change.

Unchanging
©bambililymoo
They say the world around us is always changing. A change in the winds, a change in our lives, a change for the future...
But history never changes, it repeats itself again and again, forever unchanging, forevermore.
