Cognitive Creature
A cognitive creature
With the mind of a preacher
Trying to understand
Life’s latest feature
Slammed daily
With glitz and glam
All pretty boring
And all a huge scam
Everything is designed to fail
From the day your born
Throughout life you flail
No getting ahead
Just falling behind
Making a pittance for a daily grind
Nothing to get excited or look forward to
Lockdowns and closures
Signal depressions que
People are tired and short
Screw the elite you retort
Enough is enough
Of your fanatic control
I’m aware of the situation
I know the toll
Keeping me safe
While crushing my soul
I know the routine of your daily spew
You rinse and repeat for the masses to view
Well, here’s something for you to chew
Shut up already………… We know what to do
Eric (and sometimes not)
