They don't have the right
to jeopardize all our lives
with their wrong choices

                 Kelly McManus

Where they go from here
looks like back to where they where
making more mistakes

                                    Kelly McManus

Now that they've taught you
what you should do think and say
I guess it's too late

                                Kelly McManus

Who do you accept,
  in your community, just
    the deaf, dumb, and blind.

                                      Kelly McManus

Who are they too say
who what why when where and how
we should live our lives...Kelly McManus

You have no control
so what's your expectation
of remaining whole
                                    Kelly McManus

Priceless work of art
you must keep away from them
because it's your life
                                     Kelly McManus

Been brainwashed since birth
propaganda references
controlling the earth

                       Kelly McManus

Never better bet
then when you bet on yourself
as the favorite

                          Kelly McManus

How long's the lifeline
in the hands that carry guns
ask their unborn sons

                                      Kelly McManus

It's a mockery
the control freaks don't abide
by the thou shalt nots

                                      Kelly McManus

Seeking a species
whose mental prowess is more
than simply feces

                           Kelly McManus

End of everything
just a button push away
but you think your sane

              Kelly McManus

Free from programing
but not liked by glassy - eyed
remote controlled drones

                       Kelly McManus

Few stars in the sky
moonlight on a cloudy night
bring my eyes delight

                          Kelly McManus

Public defenders,
what number of cases, do they
honestly win you?

                       Kelly McManus

Watch what you write
stakeouts are at poetry
sites both day and night

                 Kelly McManus

Civilization
what prevents it from being
the uncivilized

                     Kelly McManus

The fans in the stands
are all clapping their hands while
cheering every play
                                    Kelly McManus

One day he'll wake up
and life as we know it ends
keep living the dream

                    Kelly McManus

Hypocrisy means
their rules don't apply to them
your free of freedom

                                   Kelly McManus

Where do we go now
now that time has run out well
invite time back in
                                 Kelly McManus

Their minds are empty
zero visibility
of thoughts they can't see

                Kelly McManus

Why do people think
they should follow control freaks
they must like statues

                               Kelly McManus

World will have freedom
when we're eliminated
from the equation

                Kelly McManus

Field of sunflowers
you and me under a tree  
what more do you need

                                        Kelly McManus

Mediocrity
and propaganda stories
all the news I see

                            Kelly McManus

Start  of a new day
past only remains as ash
future on its way
seconds minutes hours
months years all seem
to happen only once
like a lifetime of decay
ultimately fading away
start of a new day

The thoughts that they teach
never reach the enlightened
despite their efforts

                      Kelly McManus

Someone must say no
to a toxic river flow
since we're the ocean

          Kelly McManus

Imaginary
their monetary system
diminishing life

              Kelly McManus

Suffering begins
with loyalty to the crown
that's what I have found

                Kelly McManus

Some can't seem to see
no matter how bad things get
Buddha laughs at it

                        Kelly McManus

Cause they're idiots
why they know not what they do
you follow those fools

                               Kelly McManus

My buddha belly
leading the way enlighten
my kitchen again
                               Kelly McManus

The universe is
expanding as it tries to
catch up with God's Love

                 Kelly McManus

Dreams are our wishes
though some frighten us at night
others a delight...Kelly McManus

The world is riddled
with ideological
difference grow up
                                   Kelly McManus

So when the bombs drop
will it be then that they say
we should have listened

                   Kelly McManus

It was easy to know
it was the end of the road
when I saw you go
our paths may cross again
someday
out of the wind and rain
we could be standing
eye to eye perhaps wishing
we could spend one more
night arm in arm I mean
what's the harm
but until that day to come
we will simply be occasional
memories and I can only hope
yours of me will still be fond
now that you are gone.

What happens to you
after their programming's through
only they remain

                                 Kelly McManus

How can we be free
run by corporate policy
sell your stock today

             Kelly McManus

Additionally
division and subtraction
is multiplying

                        Kelly McManus

Just to let you know
to maintain the status quo
we're expendable

When the zombies come
will you run to your leaders
who created them

                        Kelly McManus

So much time wasted
on ununited nations
remainder zero

          Kelly McManus

Better change your ways
extraterrestrials come
but they never stay

                Kelly McManus

A winged bug flying
above a pond one good thing
the frog's tongue is long

                                                   Kelly McManus

Say they're our servants
then why do they work so hard
at mastering us

                              Kelly McManus

Who will save this world
from those who have abused it
they will but to late

                           Kelly McManus
