Controlling the masses

A spider climbs the wall
in it’s never ending task.
As life continues forth
in debt we unknowingly bask

A child cries out with tears
of unknown remorse.
To young to know
it’s designed course.

Insurmountable odds against us,
swimming within red pages
of numbers upon numbers,
of never-ending gauges.

A futile struggle standing,
within the shadow of big brother.
All designed to keep the minions weak,
I’d rather take beatings by a wicked step-Mother.

What better way to control than to take,
keeping us down not letting us think getting tighter.
Drugging our waters saying it’s good for us
keeps our teeth whiter, not our minds brighter.

Not to worry you, but do you know that there are studies on how to keep this country under control, with ways to stop mass uprisings, on top and the quickest and safest way, is to drug our drinking water.  And don’t think bottled water is exempt, it’s first.  It  starts with the healthy physically fit trouble makers.   So the next time you pick up a sparkling blue, take a deep breath, it might be your last thought you can call your own.

Joel.

Wow, Joel, this is scary. The shadow of big brother...I think thats somethiing all of us from the 60's carry in the back of our minds. And its getting worse every year. Who knows, maybe they already have gotten into the water..Very powerful message, and as usual, I love the way you write.

Well you know it's not really the water you've got to worry about, it's the control that's put on us unsuspecting minions.
We are kept under control by $$, TV. Credit Cards, Radio, Gas $$, etc, etc.
Our lives are accounted for our votes, our very breath.
The only thing we have that's ours is ?? you guess it, our poems, and thoughts, I would bet anybody that there is someone reading this right now and putting a little mark down on my name that says pick up first, but that's ok, I'll have all my friends with me.
hahahahahah and just when you thought it couldn't get any worse. hahaha
Joel.


I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.
