Lemmings

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Nov 21, 2021

Lemmings.
Scripted.
Vistas.
Endless.
Endless
directions,
paths.
Infinite.
Pliable
minds.
Easily
formed,
shaped,
led.
Manipulated.
Nefarious,
unseen forces
shaping
direction.
Coercing 
pathways.
Sculpting
narratives.
Forcing
compliance
through
deception.
Incitement.
Brain washed.
Blinding
common
sense.
Easily led,
the fools.
Minds
filled with
lies.
Heading
for a
cliff.
Less they
get their
heads
out of the
clouds.
