dis-united kingdom

puddle in a muddle

welcome to my disunited kingdom,...
were beggers are spat at and kicked
better that than give um a helping hand

welcome to my disunited kingdom,...
were residents of a certain colour are not aloud to fly
better that than all to have equal rights

welcome to my disunited kingdom,...
were kids pay £3 a day to make it to school
better that than an education for free

welcome to my disunited kingdom,...
were aslyum seekers and refugees are tricked into slave labour
better that then to utilise their skills

welcome to my disunited kingdom,...
were the councils hold back 400 empty houses
better that than to have low price renting

welcome to my disunited kingdom,...
were money can by privilidge and an escape from the law
better that than all to be made equal

welcome to my disunited kingdom,...
were some people actually wonder why they are hated
better that than them to have a grasp of reality

welcome to my disunited kingdom

who wonders why they are hated?
is it better for them to be wondering rather than to be certain in their convictions for a change?
is it their loss or Reality's when they refuse to submit to dialogue?

Being Enlightened

This is great, puddle in a muddle! I like the repetition, I always find that drives the point home. It's amazing how so many of us believe in love, caring, sharing, understanding...but seems the powers that be really have a tight grip on the reigns as there's still so much bullshit that goes on in this crazy world.
