 The Worm Turns


As the worm turns so does the world.
Fearless freedom fight with flag unfurled.
While tyrants go down to dust,
with clinched fist foisted and still curled.

The throbbing throng floods the streets,
demanding rights that wrongs defeat.
Demanding rights that should be given,
while from the streets by tanks they’re driven.

Will injustice always prevail?
Will the weak cry to no avail?
Will the unjust rant and rail?
Will there be no end to this tale?

But the sky is opening across the land,
Tweaking and Twittering is in every hand.
As YouTube reveals feet in the sand,
people are gathering in a unified band.

Freedom is coming and can't be stopped.
By little devices that no one ever thought,
would free the meek with justice for all,
and give them a voice no longer so small.

As the world embraces this changing game,
we instantly know, who is to blame.
The worm is turning too fast to behold,
in with the new and out with the old.

You outdid yourself with this gem Ron! You have a keen sense of how "the worm turns" and we are all wondering where it will end
its journey...

It's just incredible how powerful "the worm" has become, burrowing away in the minds and mouths of the masses. For good, yes, but, to our great cost, also for bad as rioting in the UK has also been very easy to organise and control this way. People power can be a scary or wonderful thing. Fantastic discipline in your writing here. Very neatly and carefully crafted, Ron. xx

True...the world has opened up like never before....leaves one wondering what's next! Life used to be so much less complicated before the age of computers, cell phones, etc. Interesting write, Ron...enjoyed!

Seems this would be better fit... if you say the verse out loud gives more effective feel... technology... you must live with me or be left behind trying to catch up... thanks for the read...

Let's hope the worm turns in the direction of the common man rather than a band of corrupt politicos. For the eastern bloc nations this all transpired without a tweet into cyberspace or an I-phone symphony. From the shipyard in Gdansk the former Soviet Union was brought to its knees. Let freedom and justice be the call that goes out to all of humanity. Let tyranny be a word in a lost lexicon. I bid you love and peace my dear friend. Jon Michael
