Jack Ellison Poet Rhyme

Big Brother Could Be Watching

Haven't got time for those cynical people
They're never gonna drag me down
Life's too short for whining and complaining
In their own negativity they drown

For twenty-four seven it's non-stop paranoia
Can't imagine living that way
On the sunniest day their sun doesn't shine
I rather spend time making hay

Suspecting the government's watching us
Taping us each time we pee
Had no idea things had gotten that serious
Why such interest in little old me

Well I'm just gonna go on my merry old way
More important things on my mind
Like feeding Dufus and my Persian cat Lily
A good way to stay sane I find

Haven't got time for those cynical people
There's exciting stuff to explore
This friendly old planet is beckoning me
So I'm off to open more doors

L Milton Hankins November 11, 2021 at 8:13 AM Absolutely! Best way to think, Jack, especially at our age. I hear crap and say, "So I have no power or authority to make change," and keep truckin'. Jack Ellison November 11, 2021 at 8:24 AM Bang on my friend! No power to have any effect so just let it be! Have a god one Milton! Cheers!
