The Grid's Grip Will Fail


A poem by Michael Joseph Farrelly

This age of inversion
Won't end with a bang
It starts with subversion
Through rank and file fang

The people they sense
That something is wrong
Your noise to their silence
Only makes this more strong

The grid's grip will fail
Their veil will be cracked
Each captured mind jail
Like Rome will be sacked

Rot starts from within
One mind at a time
An unruly tailspin
No reason to rhyme

The inverted age facts
Never really made sense
They played out as acts
Pounds spilling for pence

The grid's grip will fail
Their veil will be cracked
Each captured mind jail
Like Rome will be sacked

This grid it is theatre
Bread and circus their show
It mines you for data
To control what you know

It's all a facade
And once you say no
Their strings of charade
Will melt like thawed snow

Great quotes are not where you find great wisdom. It's where you share this knowledge that counts

Sharing Is Caring
