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

a wise and thought provoking poem. I agree, people are 'lost in a static pose' almost totally brainwashed and unaware that they are. A powerful poem, Sam. enjoy your evening, Sara
