As Always

poem by: John Prophet
Written on May 01, 2025

As always.
From the
beginning.
Leaders.
Followers.
Narrative 
driven.
Grabbing
minds,
souls.
Drivers of
obedience.
Religious 
rules.
Road to
salvation.
Powerful
control.
Oblivion 
focuses
the message.
The few
dictate,
masses
follow.
Power,
wealth.
Control.
Harvested 
at the 
top.
Modernity 
replete
with such.
Technology.
Puppet masters 
pulling
strings.
Influencing.
Blinding
cloud based
control.
Mandating
allegiance.
Mind
altering 
manipulation.
Hypnotized 
from above.
Demanding 
adherence.
Cloud soaked
coercion, 
raining
down.
Saturating.
Hearts and
minds.
The few
controlling 
the many.
From the
beginning.
