Helter Skelter

Helter Skelter

A white figure
waddles
in the thick 
of darkness

Black silhouettes
bleed into the light

Reversable 
procreates
forwardness

A Typo Nazi
regurgitates
non conventional 
verse
blurring the lines
between what 
is grammatically  correct
and  Artistic Expressionism

Censoring 
progressive thought
that conflicts
with being
"woke"

Muzzles
are for 
loose lips
while
the sharp end
of the knife
is more appropriate
to individualistic 
thought

Corporations
controls the herd
while Social Media
indoctrinates
 society

Lady Justice 
opens the gates
to corruption
while the humble
and meek
are left to wait
for their arraignment

Purity
no longer exist
as being "processed"
corrupts the true
meaning of 
"organically made"

Big Brother
demonizes 
conspiracy theorists
making the weak
confused to 
what is extremism

Can anyone 
be free to
think independently?
 or 
Are we all slaves 
to
Collective consciousness?

You've used your thought provoking ink, again, haven't you?

Independent thought?  Now that's a question we should all ask ourselves. Most of us are born with the gift to think independently, but some are not allowed to, and some choose not to. Some lose their lives because they are brave enough to do so. I like to think that I am my own person – but am I?

In the United States there are really only two political parties that dominates what we think.  I reject both of them.  Which according to members of each party I am an enemy of the other party.  You are either a Trump supporter or Leftist.  If I claim to be against the left I am automatically a Trumper or if I tell the right that they are full of crap, I am a socialist.  
There are people going to prison for being "insurrectionists" for their involvement on January 6th.  Though I do not agree with their actions that day, I think they are being turned into devils and are more political enemies of the left.  Members of the left have caused billions of property damage with innocent people dying during the riots a couple of years ago.  No one are calling them insurrectionists.  Their actions have largely have been unpunished.  
So both parties are guilty into bringing division to our nation.  I want nothing to do with either of them.  I think independently.  I am Libertarian.

Hi Greg, I think you press on something here for the reader to truly reflect on. Are we ever truly free? Our thoughts…are they just symptomatic of the social conditioning we are all born into? Can we ever truly understand freedom if we are always to follow suppressive rules and live under the thumb of fear ? A powerful piece x

Thank You.  I promote being an individual.  Politically I have big issues with the big two parties.  
Thanks

We are simply energy, a field of data existing as a singular being, acting out numerous folk to pleasure the one.

Provoking political piece. 
There are about 200 political parties in the Netherlands to choose from 
And they voluntarily resigned. 

Well done Greg
