Blinking Blinkered

Blinkered

Out amongst the milky way
Where the planets walk in silence
There does start a brand new day
It’s an every day occurrence

Blinkered we are by the science
Nothing lives out there they say
Have to listen be compliant
Or get sent to Coventry, hey

There are other earthly spheres 
Scattered through the cosmos way
One God mainly is feared 
Keeps the inner animal at bay

Walk ye out amongst the comets
Walk amongst the milky way
See the craters as they vomit 
All of this is yours to pay

Quicker than a lightening flash
The light ship thunders on it's way
Cosmo Naughts  young n brash
Flashing hurtling there today

Finally we meet another
Yes there’s humans this I say
Pattern of one God is a looming
Other species  to him pray

Don Johnson  18-may-11



If it rattles round inside your head
slap it on  puter till its fed
Blinkered are we bout the cosmos
orderd planning thinks instead

makes sense some plan
