nameless lives

The heaving world laments corrupt politicals,
That insolence …from which there’s no release.
Inequity and tyranny….
Injustice down through centuries.

Success depends on Social structure,
On rules laid down and long foresworn
and not….the gift within.

Us… faceless pawns are scorned.
Tongue-tied by Empires and Dominions.
And by their deeds we are controlled..
Displaced,…debased… morphed into nothingness.

Then….
we’re decommissioned by the mob
with their deactivating skills.

Our lyrics, poetry and art all turn to dust….
Are culled by every thrown dice ……are lost.
And we…drowned out by partisan and crushing laws,
Remain forgotten and denied
by every written word of theirs….
