I can see our way to freedom!

Dear me!
What is all this?
Who are you people?
What perfect planet have you been living on?
Is it then so perfect out there
In your obviously drug induced brainwashed universe?

I certainly never
Fully appreciated
Some people were such freaks

This is how it must be done
This is how it should always have been done
This is how we will change this world
The perfect social, religious and political system
Ever to see the light of day

Aaaah!
And we will finally… Continue

Your one minute of fame

With so much that is at stake
With so many ideas
That could salvage a world
So important that all should hear
Such plans that should be
Acted upon right now

Your 15 minutes of fame
Will last less than that
And in that minute
Somehow
You will have to tell it all
To communicate it all

In a clever way
To a whole world
Your great idea
To salvage this world

It can only reach a few
And you can only hope
That it will be enough
To reach the world

Got to be cleverer th… Continue

Seeing double in Los Angeles

I’m afraid
I can no longer help myself
On a Friday night
And every night of the week
I’m a drunkard
And I do see double

How did you know
I saw double?

Between Los Angeles and London
Between San Fernando Valley
And San Francisco
And whatever might remain after that
I feel
I have the right
To see double
For such a failure of a life

It is not enough
To present it all to me
On a platter
As if I was to take the world by storm

I’m suicidal
Every time
I’ll take… Continue

I’ve planned my way out of here

Tell me
Would you like me
To be out of your life
Tomorrow morning?

I’ve planned my way out
Of this nightmare we call life
I can change it all overnight
You will never hear of me again

Tell me!
Is that what you want?
Please understand me
This is no longer a threat
It is almost a plea
For me
To finally
Start living all over again
In such freedom
And peace
That one requires

I’ve never been up
To be murdered
Or for an early death
Through stress
With you

Humankind’s future: social and political Utopia or Idiocracy?

By some coincidence in the last three days I read Men Like Gods of H. G. Wells and watch the films Idiocracy, City of Ember and WALL-E. They all deal with humankind’s future, a very bleak future that could possibly become the ultimate Utopia or perfect world, not before another world war, the extinction of humanity, and survival of a few humans to come back to Earth from space, or emerging from underground to start anew. Is th… Continue
