"A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves." - Edward R. Murrow

A Sam Scott poem:
24th November 2023

Listen to poem:
Our world
Revolves
Around us now

Medication
For each
Furrowed brow

No need
To travel
Sit just there

Canute's
Hypnotic
TV chair

A people
Lost
In static pose

The world
Moves on
As we repose

Break 
The cycle
Turn off repeat

Wet sand
Again 
Beneath our feet

Hear 
The birdsong
Smell the rain

Return to
Humanity
Once again
