toxic bible days

its rainin’ such misery
can’t find my bare feet
in this chemical violated mud

my house has
been blown up
and I’m not livin’
in iraq

no friend I tell the truth
its what is keeping
me alive these bloody days

I see with my heart and soul
no longer can I use my eyes

children being pumped full of medication
soon we’ll be livin’ in a tranced out nation
people watchin’ without due care
this is todays nightmare

right between the eyes.

you pull no punches for the timid souls. "soon we’ll be livin’ in a tranced out nation"? Already happened as far as I can see. Before our last election, after all Howard's abysmal, filthy lies and racism I swore to all and sundry that if he got in again I would move to NZ or Cuba. He did. I didn't. But this time... well we'll see. I have no faith in the Australian people. cheers, Jess

Political meltdown

I agree, and its already taking shape Jess, their are medication programmes running for children. Have you heard about chemtrails? I'll be writing a poem on that subject soon. Lenny
