Ten Penny Women
All you ten penny women got nothing in your head.
With your skanky cassanovas you might as well be dead.
You strut and you wobble, don’t know the price of bread.
Stay away from my orchard.
You paint your plastic faces, botox your lips.
Worry about your bums, push out your tits.
Faced with real life your mind it just flips.
Brains of a pilchard.
All you hard muscled men, tattoos on your arms.
You’ve got the mentality that sets off fire alarms.
Your brain’s in your balls, the least of your charms.
Clever to be hard.
I fear for the future when I hear your shallow thought.
All that’s in your heads adds up to a juicy nought.
You could fill a sentence with all that you’ve been taught.
You make me tired.
Opher – 7.7.2022
Sometimes when faced with the mindlessness of so much popular culture I despair. You go out on Saturday night to see girls dressed in a handkerchief wobbling around on high heels drunk out their minds while the lads swagger about showing off their tats and biceps looking for a fight. It is all so very pointless, mindless and shallow.
Meanwhile, around them, obliviously, the universe turns and unscrupulous politicians and businessmen prey on them.
Meet The Clones
Meet the clones,
The mindless majority,
Those who have lost their minds.
Meet the zombies,
Who follow orders,
Without a thought.
Meet the termites
Supporting their leader
Selflessly giving their lives.
Study the machine
That feeds the fake news;
Dispenses propaganda.
See the system
That uses brutality
To impose its lies.
Meet the elite
Who prosper from
Exploitation and control.
Opher – 3.3.2022
Not enough people question what they are told. They follow like sheep and allow themselves to be controlled and manipulated.
Without the mindless zombies of security forces no tyrant can hold on to control. Their armies, torture chambers and secret police kill and brutalise without question. They are like termites feeding their queen.
So Putin orders his zombies into the Ukraine and they do what they are told. They kill for a lie.

What Makes a Goon?
What makes a goon?
Strutting in uniforms
With body armour and masks.
What makes a goon?
Behind their shields
With their guns and batons.
What makes a goon?
Following orders
Mindlessly dispensing violence.
What makes a goon?
Arm of the State
Merchants of terror.
What makes a goon?
Beating heads
Stiffling protest.
What makes a goon?
Teargas and bullets
Terror and power
What makes a goon?
Mindless zombies
Faceless thugs.
What makes a goon?
Expressionless
Emotionless.
What makes a goon?
Instruments of tyranny
Never questioning.
What makes a goon?
Unquestioning
Vehicles of oppression.
What makes anybody want to give up their individuality, their ability to reason, and become an enemy of the people?
Opher – 7.9.2020
These faceless men in uniform are merely obeying orders. They do as they are instructed, without question.
Perhaps they should start to question a lot more?
But their training in one long session of brain-washing – follow instructions, obey, do not think. You are a machine. You are a goon – a vehicle of the state.
You cannot question authority. They are always right.
Thus dictator after dictator, tyrant after tyrant, is propped up by mindless goons.
