Freedom is infectious
Putin and his oligarchs are in control
They claim the right to direct us.
Same with Johnson, Trump and the elite
They claim to protect us.
But freedom is infectious.
Stand against the establishment machine
They claim that we are reckless.
They bleed us dry, laugh and sigh
Then kick us in the solar plexus.
But freedom is infectious.
Ukraine, Russia or the USA
The people’s spirit connect us
That elite is just the same
They never respect us
But freedom is infectious.
But freedom is infectious.
Freedom is infectious.
Opher – 7.3.2022
The real war is the one that has raged down the centuries – between the ones who are in control and the rest of us.
In primitive times it was the chief and shaman who held the power, had their pick of everything, lived in plenty and presided.
As ‘civilisation’ grew, kings, princes and robber barons, Bishops, Popes and Sheikh, lived in their palaces while the majority lived in hovels.
The powerful took from the poor until they had more than they could ever use. Ostentation lived beside poverty and death.
It still does.
The superyachts crowd the marinas while beggars starve in the streets.
That is the real war.
Whether it is the billionaire Trump, the greedy Tories or Putin and the oligarchs; they are all part of the same problem – gross inequality.
It’s time we ‘civilised’ people created a freer, more equal society – a global society without tribes and war.
