When the news is sad and the views are grim
Enoughs enough long time had, just feel so full to the brim
Me daily dose of exercise, me decision swiping thumb
Who is right and who is wrong, all on a screen five inches long
We keep scrolling scrolling yeah…
Me mouth is shut and me conscience is numb
When me fingers are doin the talking, with the army bunch of dumbs
It’s their mess it’s their distress, doesn’t bother me take no stress
Not me kin not me pals, I needn’t cry if fall not me walls
We keep fooling fooling yeah…
Their sky is their roof, Earth is their bed
They’re guests in their own homes, rent is seven decades of bloodshed
Them not me mate not me folk, not me type so me not provoked
Their lives cheaper than ours, hell yeah it’s been a long funny joke
Read the rest of the poem Show less
We keep rolling rolling yeah…
You’re showered by the powers to be, news to clean the hurt and bleed
Harsh bitter truth to swallow this, just gets buried under me newsfeed
Them want change then them should try, them to blame tis them who must cry
No you won’t admit their eyes ran dry, cos their pains make ya smile wry
They weep when crash ‘em walls on ‘em peeps, yer arrows and fire from the sky falls
While you keep banging ya heads, and weep at yer wailing Western Walls
We keep trolling trolling yeah…
Them now tenants in the land them once owned, yer the landlords and lords of the land
Them just perished, anguished and moaned.
Scattered all round the world you were, driven out, drained out and done
A roof you too deserve no doubt, a home, a land, the promised Canaan.
From scatters to squatters, whose land is this now any way
Throw out the gods who divide, let in the ones who provide,
You’re joined in hips together, together shall yous stay
We keep consoling consoling yeah…

About Me
My parents gave me the nick name 'Shayer', meaning 'poet' in Urdu language. I have a special fondness for words and languages in general, but never tried out poetry. I am here to really learn from you and see if my nick name really is worth it or not.
Location: United Kingdom, London
