Each of us using allotted space
90 cms square
Privacy being extra rare
We jump off the raft: take our turn:
That the rest will space earn
Yet others will the pedals turn
Providing power to protect the swimmers there
With sonar for the sharks to scare
no land or rescue: no form of respite can-we earn.
Such is our plight
Yet more swimmers in our sight!!!
What to do with them is the problem
What can “US” do now?
Both question and solution.
A strange conclusion for scribe or poet
Trapped within this tragic tribal situation
Looked at from the inside or the outside
When both are on the right side and one word can suffer such manipulation
You are right
to write
about the fight
little left without that right
Yes truth is stranger than the fiction
one is one
and nothing right when nothing left
without that interfacing friction.
Risking assault by those from the hall I admit my first name is Brian. Might be lion in China but has slightly different connotations elsewhere.
My wife was under anaesthetic undergoing a serious operation when she suffered from the hallucination that a giant Lego Man monster was approaching.
“What would Brian do“ she reported as she came to
Out went Lego Man in came Macho man.
I too came back to reality later on of course but a moment to remember for any husband.
“could be still under“ mutters sensible in my right ear
(dont forget US is humanity not country )
Silicon Sid nearly dropped his hammer drill as he ate the toast when headline TV scrolled US had survived through the climate change of 23rd century and was now established in Mars. Never the less he moved on to the chalk flakes when he observed US had moved to another galaxy.
We the electorate, which includes all of us, must have the power to instruct government as to what they have to do for the next session in keeping with all local feeling.
Then those who pretend to power put forward schemes to meet our desire with good intent as their manifesto. This to be protected by statute and parliamentary procedure during the obligatory term of intended service.
We decide then who we best trust to follow the manifesto’s actions and priorities in government by general election.
(US the tribe of us just not a nation)
Now the problem of the war
For US to make solution
And gain Just retribution
With so many gone before?
With Right, Logistics, Resolve ever equal
Strategy would seem best helpful
But an Enemy?
Far from useful !
(Of series and imagination)
Let science and the arts be those two.
Ever adding never reaching
Ever reaching to complete
One material seeking shelter
One spiritual seeking comfort
There is no other so why bother
half the one
And half the other
AI the one ?
And wealth the other ?
One to wonder
One to gather
Darwin one ?
Design the other ?
Absorbing one
Solves the ponder
Yet still the maker stays
This one
We the electorate, which includes all of us, must have the power, once again, to instruct parliament what they have to do for the next session.
We decide at the general election who we best trust to do it.

The sophisticated think they haven’t
The civilised know we have
and so to the end
ignorant, fighting, we fall and fail
knowingly, peacefully, we ascend to prevail
