Heroes

(Short)

Another news on television
Speeding ambos through division
End of the day, its our decision

More deaths for us to take
Humanity’s best cuts the cake
What can we do, for our own sake?

Lungs have given up fighting
The shops have gone up lighting
As this writer keeps on writing

Starting to get a little stir crazy
Most of us are still not lazy
Anonymous aren’t taking easy

We are not ‘out and about’ yet
Yet some of us, can take a bet
Re-writing history we can’t forget

Conspiracies theories stretched too far
Proving how glorified idiots are
Masked Heroes and Orange Czar

(Alternate)

Another news on television
The government is inefficient
Minimum wage is insufficient
Army will complete the mission
More deaths for us to take
Lungs have given up fighting
How much more hate, must a human being take?
Till it evokes rioting
The shops have gone up lighting
Ashes tell a thousand stories
Of false pride and white glory
A generation of oppression
sick and tired of depression


Amongst the chaos and derision
Speeding ambos through division
Humanity’s best cuts the cake
Sailing on the bloody lake
Of murders under supervision
Floating on their inhibition
End of the day, it is our decision
To sit back or speak our vision
What can we do, for our own sake?
To be poisoned or To kill the snake?
As this writer keeps on writing
Starvation isn’t being “on dieting”
Millions mourn and thousands dying
The media still prefers lying


Starting to get a little stir crazy
Using Netflix as therapy tool
Most of us are still not lazy
Missing being late to school
We are not ‘out and about’ yet
But conspiracies surely are
Yet some of us can take a bet
To prove how glorified idiots are


Ventilators from rich electric cars
The will of Heroes – magnanimous
Rushing bodies on stretcher cars
Backed up by Anonymous
Leaders preach, demean and insult
Equality, a goal; Freedom, a threat
Calling everyone against them a cult
Rewriting history, we will not forget
The year of a pandemic, the mighty fall
White house bunkered down
A President hunkered down
With tearing gases, and blackened wall
This is a show, with false title
A sham mass, a prop bible
Person of the year: the nominees are
Masked heroes and Orange Czar
