What Lies In the Wind

What Lies In The Wind



    Subliminal secrets passing through the wind
        Caught within the ears of a paranoid person
            Retinae scans, eyes searching, unfocused again
                Everyone is subject and under suspicion...

                    Mesmerized by the brevity of these faded men
                        How boldly they materialize out in the open
                            Crumbling protective walls and your right to defend
                                 Shadows manipulate subliminal secrets in the wind...

This is chilling Brian. They have chips in all newer passports now in America, subliminal messages being broadcast into our homes via t.v. and ways to watch us through our walls via satellite and so much more. We are like sheep and the black sheep who go against them mysteriously disappear. Great writing my friend! #7

So very true Connie it has gone way too far now and they have the terror laws in lace to make it legal and justify everything through that. Scary world it is turning into.

The most deadly of wars aren't the ones with tanks and guns blazing, but the silent ones, that no one is even aware is happening ... very well expressed, Brian! With the upgrades of super-technology like retina scans, mega info databases, we too have to put an "upgrade" on our responsibility. "What Lies in the Wind" can be an enemy or a friend ... great subject matter for a poem.

you are so right my friend. As I was just telling Silent it is nice to have people read who really grasp what you are saying! Most people these days are ignorant to it unless you spell it out letter byu letter for them! Have a great day
