“We need help, the Poet reckoned.”
Tis true, help we do need,
but tis not the help that I question;
But who it comes from & what
their true motifs are.
Don’t we all question our
Governments at some time –
it’s in our history.
It may not be openly –
but – even showing open
oppressors views; yet,
it doesn’t make anyone wrong?
Poets reckon a lot of this –
but they still would be wrong.
Politics is just a mind game now –
groups of crooked people leading
less crooked people?
We think that the leaders
know what’s going on –
but I wonder if anybody
knows
THE TRUTH?
as a poet, I reckon we need help.
