Notes About The Poem

Does privacy exist ????

To me there seems to exist, correct me if I'm wrong,
in a modern society , full of many flaws
A gaping oxymoron!!!! Which takes precedence,
all the spying apparatus or all the privacy laws ??

So many methods, mobile phones, computers, smart meters, 
cameras on the roads many more,  perhaps I'm not aware of
None of us exempted in our homes or driving in our cars
Do those who employ these methods to subjugate our freedoms,
suffer deep seated irrational fears ? Why else would they do it ?
How to find some solace amongst all the crazy bedlam,
escape potential, long lasting, deep emotional scars

Pray to God ,wherever He exists, some say it is above
To fill the  world with compassion, 
change these evil ways, replace them with universal love
