It is very difficult to watch the TV or listen to the radio anymore!

in #freedom7 years ago

i tell ya! When you know information that most people don't know, it is really hard to keep composure. In i's own mind, i think a lot of people likely have heard the truth but refuse to accept it as truth. It is just better to go with the flow and not cause any waves. Being passive isn't for i.
Seeing all the propaganda and lies that are pounded into us on a daily basis, is so heavy. These thoughts remind i about a poem that i wrote when i was about 16 or 17.

Roll, Roll The Water Upon The Shore
With the muscle that you are,
That creeps in and slides out,
Jumping high and falling with a shout,
Sometimes calm and smooth,
Other times angry and rude,
Having no sense of direction,
Yet beat the shores causing infection,
Roll, Roll The Water Upon The Shore
High above you birds soar,
Hugging the fish that are within,
Creating passion on every fin,
Reaching out with your fingers on the sand,
Trying to consume all the land,
With the help of the winds fortitude,
Thow gains the right to be rude
Roll, Roll The Water Upon The Shore
With all the intensity you store,
With all the moving about you do,
Getting restless and calm without a clue,
How long have you been there?
Waiting for someone to give you a stare?

Possibly i knew then, but subconsciously. :)

Nice poem. Not many take the time to write those.

I rather hear podcasts than radio or TV

i am totally with you on that. The cable and other TV shows always seem to be pushing and agenda. Something always about political correctness or some other inequality. Not only that you can not interact with it like you can online. (Like we are doing now) LOL... thanks for the reply. Keith
