Know the greater good  
is not for you and I but
those we should defy

                                      Kelly McManus

Geniuses so what
made a big bang theory
where nothing remains
                                           Kelly McManus

Shiver me timbers
you know which flag they all fly
it's Jolly Rodger...Kelly McManus

Selling their program
that you willingly accept
every single day

                Kelly McManus

Symbiotic state
they say their doing you good
but they're parasites

                          Kelly McManus

Let them build their bombs
machines that will say so long
laugh until we're gone

In the modern age
our greatest threat seems to be
science advancing

                          Kelly McManus

A wolfpack attacks
but a quick thinking deer leaps
across a deep creek
                
                              Kelly McManus

You give them power
so they can end the species
and you call that free...Kelly McManus

Recording you is
invasion of privacy
not implied consent

       Kelly McManus

Go on and join them
by following their orders
to Armageddon...Kelly McManus

What ever happened
to wisdom instead of this
foolish division

                 Kelly McManus

The method they use
to control both me and you
can't be called truth...Kelly McManus

Bunch of bananas
on a shiny brass table
in a bamboo bowl
                                 Kelly McManus

Rocking in my chair
rotating on a boulder
just growing older
                                  Kelly McManus

Warned so many times
but the only thing you'll heed
is your own demise

                         Kelly McManus

Weapons that they make
aren't designed to save our race
that's the missing link

                            Kelly McManus

People's pettiness
is a characteristic
the system creates

       Kelly McManus

Stuck on a world where
irrational behavior
seemingly favored

              Kelly McManus

Only had time to
say goodbye wife once we saw
that bright flash of light

                           Kelly McManus

Demilitarized
only way mankind survives
otherwise goodbye...Kelly McManus

Place your bets and see
win yourself a stack of chips
or empty pockets

                     Kelly McManus

Thanks to industry
we'll go back to the stone age
turn another page

One day it will be
to late for humanity
to finally think...Kelly McManus

What compels humans
to be so much less than their
capability

                       Kelly McManus

Dandy lions grew
from the radioactive
goo that once was you...Kelly McManus

Can't you use your brains
before it begins to pour
all that acid rain

                 Kelly McManus

You can write letters
or carry signs while shouting
to make real change

                        Kelly McManus

Two androids sitting
on a bench reminiscing
remember humans
                                  Kelly McManus

I pledge allegiance
to the universe instead
of feuding factions

            Kelly McManus

Sad as the world is
every once in a while
we still have to smile

Making more weapons
than all of their enemies
that's what they call peace...Kelly McManus

When all the reigns pass
clouds of darkness no longer cast
ray of sun freedom
'
                               Kelly McManus

When you get your wings
don't be proud or the angels
toss you off the cloud
                                       Kelly McManus

There was once a time
man just a fish on the sand
now found floundering...Kelly McManus

Implanting  their dreams
into the minds of many
who will never wake...Kelly McManus

Covid's a warning
that they're too stupid to heed
no they're the disease

Have your attachments
time and money won't let go
like the status quo

                      Kelly McManus

News they choose to air
desensitizing us all
for when it gets worse

              Kelly McManus

Once again once more
their celebration of war
always uniform

Had to  have your guns
military ambitions
look what you have done...Kelly McManus

Working together
we could create much more than
a controlling state

                                 Kelly McManus

Ninety nine percent
sure that life is worth more than
the one percent hoards...Kelly McManus

Where the winds will take me
that's where I want to be
a breath of fresh air
on my way to who knows where
tastes like adventure to me
take a bite and see
the world is my buffet
so I'll go for seconds
maybe even thirds
and double up on  dessert
as I flirt with
the beauty this world
has to offer
I will author
a few words
in hast
for I have places to go
and people to see
with no time for a biography
or a blog while I'm still at
the buffet acting like a hog
can't get bogged down
with idle chit chat
since I'm on my way to see
this this and that
would you hand me my hat
toodle-lou be seeing you...Kelly McManus

Still gladiators
performing in arenas
in a thumbs down world

Look at the weather
not getting any better
greed and industry

         Kelly McManus

Forced to fund their plans
doctors lawyers and the man
lounging on the sand

                         Kelly McManus

Know this world isn't free
were all being held hostage
monetarily

                    Kelly McManus

So tell me what's changed
all the show and bravado
status quo remains

                  Kelly McManus

Who's freedom is it
because I don't think it's yours
or mine at this time

                            Kelly McManus
