Poem of The Week

THE UNWANTED BROTHER

Big brother is here so watch your back
He ain’t no relative of mine
But he knows me through his data line

I’m not protected from his tainted eyes
Or his network of loyal spies
I cannot Chant my god given speech
Or I will find I'm a security breach
So kick me beat me and take my rights
For in this democracy I cannot fight

My mobile phone the tracker
My movements all in view
For this brother is the Kane who will slaughter me and you,

Data man is the brother who will not go away
Technology feeds his hunger and his eyes are his to prey
Don’t step a foot out of line or you will surely be
Just another statistical victim, hung upon his data tree

If you don’t wan’t this brother don’t let him dominate
Turn off your passive nature and stand toe to toe with me
For together we can fight and save democracy
That’s if you want to live, in a world that’s good and free
