BLIND HUMANITY.
Relentless alarms ring in morning head
Waking me from my iron bed
Time to work has arrived once more
Heavy boots exit mortgaged door
Winter roads in darkened space
Eyes clogged with crystal waste
Nodding head to drivers pass
Fading reality through looking glass
Barely arriving to the gates of industry
leaving behind a gasp for history
Dredging through miles of digital red tape
To build this stagnant human state
Fingers wrapped in copper cuffs
Lungs inhale another door to dust
The whisper of a workers tale
Alcohol, drugs and skin so pale
Work and work our hearts to stint
Feeding the machine of credit print
Buying and selling our laboured Limbs
To die in karma and repeat our sins
What is life in this inert vault
Breeding our young to shackle and bolt
Praying to a God made in ego mind
Seeking peace in a world gone blind.

A brilliant write Gerard and one that tells of the reality of it all .
Not just the repeated drudgery toil of the 9-5 but of the constant labours from the cradle to the grave.
The hamster on the wheel who knows its predicament but alas can't get off.
For the needle returns to the start of the song and we all sing along like before.
Great write and full honours for telling how it forever is and feels and pinned to read again.
Thank you Shaun, for reading and understanding humanity's prison, its a tough pill to swallow, its easier to Bury our heads in the sand than to deal with the reality of life on earth.
Absolutely awesome Gerard!
I totally understand and agree with the message. Brilliantly written 👏👏👏

The weariness and resignation you have managed to convey in this write is quite astounding NE. I feel it all and you are right...blind humanity...exactly right.
