Open sentence.
It's hard to find the words
To do justice on our current timeline
As we walk that fine line
Either the bomb the spaceman or the red throngs
Coming to ruin these fragile lives
Now they say get ready
Na it's alright mate
We'll keep our sons alive
Everything unfolding has me almost holding
My hands over my ears and a blindfold on my eyes
It's like something's different
Can't quite put fingers on it
But something just ain't right
See, we drill oil from the oceans
Near
But by it from the WORLD
That just queer
It almost feels deliberately structured
To keep us paying
Despite the bonus
Through the nose
If they can tax the water
We better be careful
They might choose air
Food comes to us through payments made
Now folks need free food
Despite working all of the days
A few hours more
Maybe we'll have cake
Business and bureaucratic society
Take
All of our 'fortune'
Unless you are wealthy and economically stealthy
At least in this place
It's easy to stay healthy
Our national treasure
Under constant pressure
Millennia ago
We knew how to be human
Hunting and foraging
Early farming
Then someone decided to sell some fish
Stored in salt
It wasn't his fault
He was only trying feed himself
Even though he was fatter than
The others in the clan
This tendency to purchase goods
To get your tool and all the other needs
Results in evolving into lazy people
Could I sit and make a needle, peel a buffalo
Make my shoes
Use a rock to build my shed.
Capitalist ideologies developed
Deep in histories
Because someone
Always wants more
Now
Penny pinching mothers watch with envy
Bourne of the necessity they bear
For children not being empty
An extra blanket
A warmer coat
Sturdy footwear
Getting harder to produce
So creditors offer
And families bite
Because they Needed more money
Until Friday night
We are haphazardly bred
Into human open prisons
All over the planet
Except in odd corners
You're not free
As neither am I
All beholding
To a delusion
That staying locked in this matrix
Is the only option
What if we all did as ancient folks did
Drop the armour
Drop the whip
Drop the weapon
Drop the streets
Drop the house
Drop the Job
We could all get together
And
Simply move out
Put a suture on top of what's left of the sapien
Take him away to open the cage he's in
Maybe we can save him
Into a place where people are sovereign
Under the heavens
Free and responsible
The rich or the poor
All the same
But
Some humans always look for someone to blame.
Before we knew it
It will be pretty much the same
Round and round and it goes
Will it ever end
No
No
It won't
AGL
