Brainwashing

Every morning when you wake,

A little time you should take,

To cleanse your mind

Choose words so kind

Add a lather of hope

To help you cope

Emotions of choice

Free your voice

Understand yourself.

Liberate from hell.

Live with purpose and resolve

And, let your fears dissolve.

13 police cars and a helicopter
All heading to the park
Cos the kids are out the house
And it isn’t even dark!
Four months locked inside,
To save those around them
The numbers are so low
the response it does confound them.
Governed by consent
Terrorised by TV
Freedom now a memory
Of how we used to be.

A Better Earth

Break the spells that’s been cast,

Set your mind free at last.

To live together in unity,

To stand together, you and me,

No creed or colour to divide.

No shadows left for hate to hide.

Spread your love and shine your light,

Promote peace, do what’s right.

United we stand, divided we fall,

Listen to your heart, heed its call.

Fear, the weapon of choice,

Truth is speaking, hear its voice.

Freedom comes when we take a stand.

Moving forward hand in hand.

United against tyranny,

A better Earth for you and me.

Oculus Omni

One day at a time

Calmly nurturing

Understanding, patiently

Lovingly, caressingly

Under an umbrella

Saved by God’s grace

Optimum performance

Means remembering

No more forgetting,

I matter too.

A draft from the past….Pinocchio

I just found this among lots of draft blogs. I could probably add something about The Three Little Pigs but for the sake of posterity I’ll leave it as it was written.

Let us not rush into any more wars,
Not on the word of a liar,
If only his nose grew like little Pinocchio,
Or his pants really did catch on fire.
He is an actor that has learned his trade,
In the Skull and Crossbones secret ways.
He plays with false flags,
As he drives around in jags
Acting like we’re all toys
Here for the joy of the Eton boys
To die in their wars
While inflicting more sores
In a world already so deeply scarred
Minds so terribly marred
Step back from the madness we see
It’s the only way clearly to see
We’ve been programmed with the language of lies
Terror’s been spread in their well acted sighs
Contagious the disease has run wild
Infecting the future of every child
Now they’re calling for more war?
As Scotland’s showing Westminster the door
We ain’t playing your rules,
You blood-thirsty fools
The extremists are your creation,
A result of bombing a nation
Well that and your skulduggery
And out and out thuggery
You think we don’t know
How you write the full script
Then play it over and over in our minds
Our emotions heightened to blind
The tears we have cried at the times you have lied
Have left a gift in their place,
With clarity we looked at the news,
No longer buying your views
Stop acting like we have no choice
And start listening as we speak with one voice
We will not be manipulated any more,
We will no longer fight in your wars
Gone are the ways of the past,
Our true voice set free at last
Peace the proclamation as we move forward with glee,
Reclaiming our sovereignty, we set ourselves free
Into a future at one with the World
Educating and empowering the boys and the girls.
Creating a future that shines a bright light,
On leading with love instead of dominating with might
We’re so close now Scotland, and the death throes are messy
And Cameron may be a bully but he’s also a big jessie!!
He’ll pull out every tool he can find to even the field
But it’s harvest time now and it’s time to yield
The future they planned is ours for the taking.
A future at peace is one we’ll be making
Decommissioning Trident with our courageous hearts
Showing the world we can have a fresh start
No longer tied to the bondage of past
Finally from the chains we’ve broke free at last
Imagining the future, drawing it close
Energising the vision, we want to see most.
Vote YES on the 18th September,
A day future generations will always remember.

An Ode to Friends

There are times we pass like ships in the night,

then others we’re hardly out of sight.

You don’t judge the shadows under my eyes,

you give me a hug when I’m full of sighs.

We’ve giggled, danced and sang some songs,

we’ve righted the world from all its wrongs.

No matter if we’re together or not,

you’re never far away from my thoughts.

As life sails along and you’re pulled by the waves,

And you wish at times you could run away

Think of me as I think of you

and hopefully, you will smile too x

Heavenly Love

A tribute to my Uncle Bill Roy

I know why you couldn’t wait

your love had wedged the gate

keeping it open for you to slide through

so once again she could be close to you.

You slipped off when you had the chance

To be reunited in the eternal dance,

Free at last from your earthly bounds,

you smile and laugh as you spin her round

You don’t hear the angels serenading

As they join you both in celebrating

heavenly love returning home.

My Love for Irene Roy

What love has connected

no distance can divide

I am always with you,

in the love you have inside.

Until we meet again my love

I’ll never be far away.

Tune into your heart

where I’ll always stay

Together in the laughter,

together in the tears

As we have always been

during our many happy years

Until we meet again my love

don’t think I’m far away

Tune into your heart

where I’ll always stay

The Final Whistle

Sitting on the side-lines

cheering less and less

Disconnected voices

never sensing my distress.

Benched by circumstance

not an inability to play

Poverty of opportunity

the price I’m forced to pay.

How do I stay connected,

when I’m stuck within these walls?

I still turn up to training,

hoping my time has yet to come.

but the team fails to see

the shadow I’ve become.

The alarm bell is ringing

the side-lines call again,

but I’ve decided to stay at home

reconnect with lost friends…

Will they notice my disconnection,

or the space upon the bench?

I shower and prepare myself

for this meeting of minds

No longer care about connecting

with my team-mates who went blind.

I check my reflection in the mirror

to check I’m ready to go

then I count out the tablets

before I change my mind to no.

Did we win today I wonder,

as the final whistle blows…

The Goddess of Illusion

“Get on your f’n mask!”
screamed the Libertarian
to the lonely librarian.
As the freedom fighter
shared all the rules.
Watching Orwell’s imagination
Repeat on station after station.
Pens at the ready to herd us all in.
Imprinting a story to keep us within.
The Goddess of illusion cycling
Round and round on repeat
A poison chalice douses naked feet.
Trickling through, eroding away,
reserves and progress all washed away.
Limits stretched to the extremes.
Set the alarm, wake from the dream.
