Brainwashing

Brainwashing Brainwashing is a flowing, right there on your TV, Oh they sell life insurance to 20 year old’s, or guys like you an me, Brainwashing sure is flowing, and the lies won’t let you be, And they call it advertising., money flows, so merrily.. Yes the old time Liberals, Used scare tactics well, Commies under the bed , Would get you, they would tell, Voters were frightened with the lie, So they voted for the master, Wages dropping bye n by, Cheap labor they are after. don’t kid yourself, that it isn’t so, last federal Liberal government, forced down the wages - workers know, overseas workers is the lever-meant, the super-rich employ, morality in the dunny, and fatso jumps 4 joy., ho-hum dum-dum Leroy Don Johnson

Not much that's fair in this ol world Don. We keep hoping for it all to get better but it never does. Maybe we should shed the apathy and rise to be heard! Great Poetry my friend!

Those TV commercials and government tithes to pay.. trolls hiding under society's bridges, Don! Ever since I'd read the word, "Leroy", I've had Jim Croce's song singing in my mind.."Bad bad Leroy Brown The baddest man in the whole damn town Badder than old King Kong Meaner than a junkyard dog". Okay, that wasn't necessary...LOL Enjoyed your write more than that catchy tune! Love, Mikki
