Ambulatory



Sickened in the head.
But not confined to bed.
Are the people ambulatory.
Capable to walk.
Yet,
The rhetoric to talk...
Has been diagnosed,
As full of decaying nonsense.
And sold to buy are the lies,
Killing the truth.
With a leaving people sickened in the head,
And relying...
On a fiction that addicts them to delude.

Ambulatory with it going on,
And relying...
To be told what to do.

Ambulatory with it going on,
And relying...
To be told what to do.
