Excerpt From the Compilation Prayer, Number 8, Sensitivity, Curiousity, Intelligence

Excerpts from the compilation: “Prayer” 8
Sensitivity, Curiousity, Intelligence

I wish that we can all practice nurturing 
and nourishing 
our Sensitivity, 
Never stop being Curious 
and asking uncomfortable questions,
Have the courage to wake up 
and use our Intelligence 
And take great care 
that we are not “Numbed” or “Overwhelmed”.
Especially:
By the huge amount of companies, apps and services
That “apparently” cost us nothing,
But whose (not so secret) objectives are 
To hypnotise, control, manipulate and sell – 
Especially to our children.
Or by the endless amount of mostly, 
sensation seeking media
Controlled by the spectres, 
some of whom we call leaders, 
That work best in the shadows
And only trust the light of day
When they hide behind their grand titles 
and practiced, smiling masks, 
Feeding their hungry egos and lust for power 
By creating separation, 
Panic, drama 
and questionable regulations and laws.
Who together
Are slowly, secretly removing our hard fought
Foundations and monuments of freedom:
Brick by brick...
