Premium Member What Do 1984 and 666 Have In Common
George Orwell tried to tell 1984
but here's what 1984 told us
1984 was the year we had 
The Terminator
the ultimate movie
about Artificial Intelegence 
with the ability to travel through time
Today we have AI
Let me be the first to name it
The Terminator
It also has the ability 
to...

What a year – Tim was just a little boy of 25 – naïve and

Lost in ‘innocence’ a critical time bomb waiting to happen

Blue-eyed he listened to Nena’s 99 Red Balloons flying high

While Band Aid wondered whether They Know it’s Christmas

Premium Member Say No To 1984
In years to come it might be said,
‘I never realised this is where it led,
It just crept up, I just went with the flow 
Nobody told me how things would go’.

Nobody explained what I took for granted
Would be taken, by those who commanded
That I conform...

Premium Member Courage, 1984
Curio cabinet full of
Memories; a small dent from a wild child
All hopped on penny candy, running on
Giggle energy, because of the excitement
Of the Little Orphan Annie radio program,
Stopped in her tracks, and stopped in her breath. 
Scraped on the lion paw spindle leg, 
From when...

Premium Member Thought Control 1984 and 2017
Spin, spin is no sin they say
Political correctness ,must win the day
Group think of politicians who claim
to know best
Conform,conform, be subject to their will
is always their quest
These limousined elite ,
the subject of my political tale

Enfranchisement and freedom
has , and will always prevail...

Contest Poem: 1984 Or 2017
1984 or 2017 (For Contest)

I ran as far away as I could
It predicted we'd fail, that all would ...
We humans revolt against "ought" and "should."

Orwell knew better - O well, you say!
In 1948, as one War seemed to give way
To a quieter, colder one, he...

1984 and Beyond
I awake to the sound of birds singing.  A faint memory of my dreamworld still      remains, the feeling of being held under water at a FEMA " Re-education" camp.  I wonder if reoccurring  nightmares mean anything ?...

Premium Member Banned Book Club VII- 1984
Midtone grey surrounds what’s left of a man’s soul
Scenes of biblical abominations troll
Inky are the hellish horizons appalled 
An okay is needed for anything at all 
Manipulating truth determines your life
Erasing individuality is part of your strife 
Robotic neurotic, emotionless choice, nary a voice
Force proles...
