BLIND HUMANITY.
Relentless alarms ring in morning headĀ
Waking me from my iron bed
Time to work has arrived once moreĀ
Heavy boots exit mortgaged door
Winter roads in darkened spaceĀ
Eyes clogged with crystal wasteĀ
Nodding head to drivers passĀ
Fading reality through looking glass
Barely arriving to the gates of industryĀ
leaving behind a gasp for historyĀ
Dredging through miles of digital red tape
To build this stagnant human state
Fingers wrapped in copper cuffsĀ
Lungs inhale another door to dustĀ
The whisper of a workers taleĀ
Alcohol, drugs and skin so pale
Work and work our hearts to stintĀ
Feeding the machine of credit printĀ
Buying and selling our laboured LimbsĀ
To die in karma and repeat our sins
What is life in this inert vaultĀ
Breeding our young to shackle and boltĀ
Praying to a God made in ego mindĀ
Seeking peace in a world gone blind.Ā Ā

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!Ā
I totally understand and agree with the message. Brilliantly written ššš

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.
