The System

The system is breaking their backs; the system is stealing their frock. I woke up this morning in the midnight hours after taking a nap for only one hour, I had no appointment or assignment,. I just wanted to mediate and see what is happening behind the gate but the morning kept drifting and the Saturday night party goers were still having a ball across the lawn, the sound was not coming from next-door and it resonate across the floor and the rumbling and tumbling of the early morning traffic saturate the air with despair but courage quickly swept it away. The system has you thinking; the system has you worrying, the system is stirring the soup and it divides you into several little groups. It promotes you to the heavens and gives you honey roast ham in a hurry. It feeds you with bacon, eggs, sausage and toast and it gives you a brand-new boat. And when you cannot think, it will set you on course with a brand-new house. It tricks the rich into investment and gives the poor what they deserve. It doesn’t care about the needy it takes from you and gives nothing back to you. It robs you of your self-worth and leaves you to whallah in the dirt. The system is under attack and you have meet together to work out that. It has you worrying all night but you have got to stand up to the fight. The problem is not her new pair of shoes; it is how you say, “how do you do.”It has been around for ages and you have to progress in many stages. You have to meet before the break of dawn before the grass wither on the lawn, when your mind is fresh and you can absorb clean air, you can tell us what you have to share. Negotiation is the most formidable tool; you have got to learn it when you go to school. You have to view it from different angle to solve this global triangle. You must observe how the hexagon and the triangle shake hands on the grandstand. The oval, the pentagon and the square, have some good insight to share, the diamond, rectangle and the circle will meet in the afternoon, and when the sun cools down, the heart and the star must meet with me before the negotiations starts. You have got to relax before you begin or they will take you for a clown The system is looking straight at you and it is telling you what to do. You have to go straight back to where it begins and gathered all the sticks and separate them from the dish and when you find the answer this cult must be taken down for you to wear the robe and the crown. The system is impeccable, the system is adorable, you have got to gather your people in one place before you close the gate, you have no time to waste.
