Same Game:
CommentFrom whence came "life" On that little rock Splashed terrestrial green and blue Mankind was a jarred specimen When the mixed bag of fugitives In lepidote garb flew Unforseen The rocky emerald scene Tribal collusion, inferior pollution The ongoing genetic manipulation Blended with... The rise and fall Of every great and not so civilization Things change and remain the same By any name It's still, just one game Outnumbered by the pests Blind faith serves The fishermen and repherders best Holy fervor The "pimped" engine inside a vintage cosmic agenda Praise, oh praise the almighty vehicle sir Say madam, have you seen the driver? No real denominations No multiple republics Just loads of shifty tricks No Borders really None of that bullshit "union" Crap What it is, is... The grandest Illusion Nothing more or less than that Jack The shaded-jaded powers Trumpeting this or that "great" state And gorging on the sly off the usual dirty far-out plate John Doe Him of the "educated" strut and pomp Is simply a clueless expendable chump Fat, lazy and harum-scarum Revelling in the transparent trappings Within and without his "free" Autocracy So often cellophaned in that sham called Democracy Playing his scripted part So many and scarcely an original thought For every apparent and wannabe dictator An assigned puppet master Skillfully shuttling the pawns around the board Artfully caged with hardly any bars By the invisible pincers of obvious and not so wars Things change and remain the same By any name It's still just one The same damn "greedy" game In the closing stages I do believe Somebody wins, somebody loses Permanently
