Poem was written on 4th May 2021. May the forth be with us all. Unfortunately, it has nothing to do with Star Wars, apart from, maybe, our war against the stars.
-
I never needed shiny things to feel
So before my master never did kneel
To gain the things you greatly prize
That will only lead to your demise
-
My employers pressured me into wanting more
I started lying to myself to improve my score
And wondered why I couldn’t find the ambition
To win in the empty war of attrition
-
It took so long for me to see
Ignoring my integrity was killing me
If i’d have just listened to tinkerbell
I could have saved myself from facing hell
-
When you’re thinking that you’re worth more in gold
Than you are in the flesh, to those that you hold
When the endless voices in your head
Will try to convince you, you’re better off dead
-
This is when the truth you'll embrace
No longer distracted by the crap that others chase.
My mind is clear from the things that they crave
That will lead us into a grizzly grave
-
I've never been materialistic or followed the herd
I’m the outsider whose voice is never heard
Always drowned out by the good time crowd
My words of caution were never allowed
-
It's people like me that asks the questions
Not blinded by their manipulations
That control the greed to always want more
And succumb to the lure to be desires whore
-
But I was after something that isn't tangible
The music I loved made the tough times bearable
I was after a leader and from the words there came
A light to follow from the world of fame
-
For 30 years I remained a blind fool
My eyes were covered over with wool
The symbols so clear once you know what they are
Glowing so brightly from the fallen star
-
Why were they selling Bidens race
Could they not see the lies all over his face.
Why were they pushing the climate trains
They will ban our coal after controlling our veins
-
Now they’re all pushing the vaccine horror
Their rage has depleted to mendacious dogma
Every single one of them no longer wise
Following those they proclaimed to despise
-
It couldn't be that none of you
See the damage the vax will do
Why didn’t you say you’re legitimately concerned
But you clearly don't care that your fans will get burned
-
Grohl taking the piss with Jagger the dagger
That rubber lipped prick always was a blagger
But Dave was sold to me as the good guy
Time to line them all up and say a long goodbye
-
The hero's you followed, just hollow it seems
False prophets one and all in the stadium light beams
Its painful to learn but then none of it matters
When the veil drops down the illusion shatters
-
It turns out your idols are on the wrong side
Their cards on the table not caring to hide
Souls long sold, telling lies unclean
To live out their sick lucifarian dream
-
Is it the devil or just bad spirit they follow
Is god really real or is he just hollow
Just metaphorical creations to help tell a story
Pure beauty and pure evil turned jackanory
