Breakdown
A song/poem – inspired from Heartbreakers music

Breakdown (chorus)
Communications vapid
Breakdown
Interpersonal raped
Breakdown
Passions deflating
Breakdown
Societal quaking

Fairness doesn’t square with legal
Contracting terms spinning
To where Cheshire cats
Are all that remains
Of once humble politicos
Corrupted by the acts of
Unreachable temptation
Over structural control

Breakdown
Lies, cheaters, thieves
Breakdown
Accountants and police
Breakdown
Teachers, lawyers, agents
Breakdown
Monetary leaches

Redistributed wealth
Mind washed pursuit
Conversion of time
Into less useful form
Energy to entropy
Effort to nil effect
Working without depth
Meaning, central purpose

Breakdown
Anarchy persists
Breakdown
Purists resist
Breakdown
Truth provides the cure
Breakdown
Underlined, underscored

Freedom is a concept
Of controlling time
Without the need to report
Action takes place
With spontaneity
Surface planning
Locking into place
Burdensome mechanisms
Controlling future generations
Frozen inbox thinking

Breakdown
Set people off resonance
Breakdown
Cognitive dissonance
Breakdown
Tension, people bleed
Breakdown
Collapse and recede

Support derived must be withdrawn
War on people shall end
Enforcement of moral law
Dictated by secrecy
No tolerance small scale
No rules elite scale
Critical imbalance
Access to material power
Enforcing order
Where chaos needs to reign

Breakdown
People on our knees
Breakdown
Resource hoarding by decree
Breakdown
Energy price out of reach
Breakdown
Blue helmets in to ‘teach’

Yet continued red/blue mentality
Vote ourselves master elite
Generate outrageous tales
Because reality scares so badly
Marching lemmings
Lock, stock and barrel
Judgment based on faulty assumptions
Using manipulated data
For ‘our benefit’, their pocketbook
Gaia’s ultimate loss

Breakdown
Communications retarded
Breakdown
Interpersonal discarded
Breakdown
Cubicle existence
Breakdown
Organized resistance

Change is what you make
When tired of the flow
Queries that have never
Been answered straight
Commit to insubordination
Civil disobedience
Working to no longer empower
A system suffering breakdown

nature’s refrain

numbers cause numbness
when collated tabularly
relative weights indicate
trends of systems of life
measurement alters reality
result precedes conclusion
irreversible actions occur
as we push round pegs
into square holes
insisting they fit just fine
