Conspiracy

Blurry video frames supposedly prove John Kennedy was shot from a grassy knoll.


 

 

 Conspiracy


Every day now,
a new one appears.
I've had it with conspiracies,
up to my ears.

Con artists seeking,
their 15 minutes of fame,
piecing together factoids,
guaranteed to inflame.

The minds of the masses,
bored to tears,
with a lackluster lives,
and inexperienced fears.

With couch potato lifestyles,
and comfort food dreams.
Flocking to the refrigerator,
and bursting at the seams.

I don't care if you're a jock,
a geek into rock,
primping for the prom,
or a soccer mom.

Your life has evolved,
into nothing but dreams.
You are food or fodder,
for these paranoid schemes.

So all I ask is a simple task,
get up, get out, and learn.
Do not rely on others,
for the knowledge you earn.

It is so easy to get stuck in a rut.
So get off your butt and yearn.
Or the day will come,
when conspiracies run,

And you'll need to speak Chinese,
for your fun.

This an honest and forthright warning for our future. You can see it, I can see it, but the earthly 'powers that be' can't see the wood for the trees. Are we doomed?

So true and disturbing to think of.

I am not fully satisfied with the information that comes to me for free. There is an effort to be made because, we all know it, things are rarely what they seem. We need a strong ego to resist the way the media treat us as passive kids.
Nicely penned.

Loads of truth here. And seeking information on the internet is fraught with the same traps. Sometimes I even wonder about Snopes. Patrick

Soberingly on point and right between the eyes. We gorge our minds on junk and fail to keep alert to spot the real sleight of hand that masterminds the global Big Picture. Clear-eyed and cogent. xx
