Stupid Properganda
I as myself as did countless other folk
I witnessed today
Going about our daily mundane day
to day chores
Passed through the square where
a man stood there with unkempt
disregard for his very own personal
grooming
Underneath a sign he had himself
wrote on a piece of cardboard he
had obviously dig out the trash
He held up with both of his hands
as high as he possibly could above
head so everyone was able to see
With a message displayed on it
which read
Keep calm and carry on regardless
We have all of us got this under control
Our role is simply rather to not to question
but follow
Everything we are told by the power's
that be that are currently in charge of
the future of all us
And no matter however implausible nor
insane they seem or appear
Know this 1 thing for sure trust and
believe at the heart of every single
decision
They might make and be forced into
take they sincerely do on all behalf
Is with both heavy and our very best
interests at heart
Otherwise ask yourself this why on
earth would we have taken the decision
in the 1st place
To use you and offer you up as merely
sacrificial pawns unless we didn't initially
think we could or thought you wouldn't
let us get away with it
But so confident are we and cemented
in our beliefs that you are so inherently
stupid
We took a vote on a show of hand's and
it passed with such a majority
We then all though unto ourselves
oh what the hell let's give it a go
What is the worst possible outcome
that could happen
Much like every and other day before
and tomorrow again
