SILLY STATEA Poem by Julie GrennessInspired by the daily newspapers.Our silly state of paranoia, Are leaders here to annoy ya? Ghosts of government past, We've had enough drivel to last! Our systems need to improve, Building bias, not a good groove, Kids are born colour-blind, They teach oldies their great minds, We're ashamed of our politicians. What's today's excuse, superstition? Then there's youth unemployment, Disaffected youth for deployment, Mendicants at charity, welfare dependent, Our silly start of paranoia, Are politicians sent to annoy ya? © 2015 Julie GrennessAuthor's Note
