Welcome To the Time Warp

Welcome to the Time Warp Does it seems that history seemingly repeats Where the simplicity of life is so rare to find And the kindness of heart finds no retreats No sharing of wealth, greediest of mankind Where fear amongst the masses abound Perpetrated by forces designed to protect us Where human rights are lost without a sound Our way of life changed, forever superfluous Freedom of speech is silenced by the stroke of a pen Unsure of what we’re told, will these lies never end Being controlled by the wealthiest of businessmen And our losses of freedom too much to comprehend Welcome to the time warp, once again we all fall prey We become just pawns to an unjust power once again Perhaps it’s time to take a stand, one voice have our say The time has come to speak freely, if not now, then when

Hi Charlie, I enjoyed reading your poem; it's a real Gem. It's my first time seeing your great work. Talking about writing a single line would shut everyone up forever. When human rights are violated, no one cares. Does history repeat itself? The selfish are incapable of demonstrating sympathy. These are great subjects. Blessings and best regards
