The Puppet Masters Ventriloquism

The voice of people should be their own They should be unique and individual, Or else we become puppets of ventriloquists Using words that merely posit, Their views, their dreams Their aims and desires, Forging re-enactments of their insidious beliefs Based around war, death and destruction, Revolving around selfish greed and corruption, Do you even know your own voice, your own views? Have you even a clue what it is you wish to do? Or are you contented with this puppetry life? Are you happy with someone controlling you all of the time? This is no existence, this is no way to live life, This is an obscenity and humanitarian crime Speak out with your own words, that spring forth from your own thoughts from your own mind, Speak out from your primal instincts Not from what it is you've been taught, Those domesticated and conditioned beliefs Have precious little to do with you or me They are just forms of ventriloquism and puppetry, I will be no slave to the puppet masters, I will be no impersonations of the shadowy men, Who govern us through compliance and their insipid control, Using their money and power to own each person's soul And convince them to bow down and give worship to them I am not puppet I am an authentic, real, genuine, I am a unique individual human. 17/06/2018
