THE KELIDESCOPE

 

 

 

WHO THEN SEES

THE KELIDESCOPE

DECEPTIONS MONOCULAR

WITHIN A THOUSAND EYES

A SINGLE VISION LOST

IN A QUAGMIRE

WHOSE INTENT

IS YET TO BE REVEALED.

 

THIS DOG AND PONY SHOW

TRADES THE DREAMS

OF EVERY MAN, WOMAN AND CHILD

FOR ITS SELF SERVING AGENDA

PROFITS FOR THE FEW

FROM THE SWEAT OF HUMANKIND.

 

TODAY, ITS GLOBAL WARMING

YESTERDAY IT WAS CARBON DIOXIDE.

IF THAT IS THE SUBSTANCE OF POLUTION

WHAT WILL THEY DO WITH PEOPLE

AS EVERY BREATH WE EXHALE

IS CARBON DIOXIDE.

WHAT ABOUT UNBURNED HYDROCARBONS?

 

NOW, 200 YEARS INTO THE ICE AGE

ISNT GLOBAL WARMING NECESSARY

ONE HALF OF THE EQUATION

FOR MOTHER NATURES BIG FREEZE?

HAS MAN EVER CONTROLLED HER

EXCEPT FOR EXTINGUISHING SPECIES

I THINK NOT.

 

LET ME GIVE YOU A SIMPLE EXAMPLE.

WHEN YOU HEAT AMMONIA, IT VAPORIZES

ONE HALF OF A CYCLE IN YOUR HOME.

THE OTHER IS CONDENSATION

WHICH PRODUCES COLD AND ICE

THE PROCESS USED IN YOUR REFRIDGERATOR.

WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT.

 

EACH FACET WITHIN THE KELIDESCOPE

IS AN EYE FOCUSED ON YOU.

IT CREATES PROBLEMS

THEN OFFERS A SOLUTION

ONE THAT IS OFFERED IN YOUR INTREST

BUT ONE THAT COMES WITH A FEE

GOD BLESS CORPORATE THINK TANKS!

 

WE PUMP MORE MONEY INTO EDUCATION NOW

YET OUR MINDS ARE BEING DOWNSIZED.

HOW ELSE WOULD 70% OF CALIFORNIAS CHILDREN

GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL AS FUNCTIONAL ILLITERATES.

HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE YOU MAY WONDER

ASK THE BLACK ROBED SERPENTS

SERVING ON THE BOARD OF EDUCATION.

 

THERE ARE SIMPLE TRUTHS TO BE FOUND

UNLESS YOU PREFER KEEPING

YOUR HEAD BURIED IN THE SAND.

ITS SAFE THERE, BUT WHATS COVERING YOUR ASS?

IF NOT YOU, THEN THERE IS NO ONE.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD PRAY TO GOD FOR ANSWERS

BUT GOD HELPS THOSE WHO HELP THEMSELVES.

kaleidoscopes of different beliefs some where in sink sometimes make a trail to a better reality

again, a well written and thoughtful poem. I appreciate the clarity in your writing. Bravo my friend.

Poetry is what gets lost in translation.
