Just People Poem by Daniel Hooks

Words fail me
Sentences derail me
Thoughts ought to set me free
But they drag me down with new responsibilities
Catch 22s have got me in a fix
Why do people have to be such dicks
Adulthood a myth
Just children in suits and ties
Surrounding themselves with lies
And they like to blame each other
Oh brother!
Who’s gonna get the job done
New world order
Same rules
Made for fools
And whatever chimp is in number 10 and in the white house
We are just too like mice to say it.

Look after your friends and family, and your own
But you forget the people who die alone
Who have no one
Fight your tribal wars
Migrant workers, immigration just an excuse
To be racist
Here’s a job here’s a fist
While more and more enlist with bnp thugs
We are all just fucking people aren’t we?
Human beings part of the human race
no matter the colour and the face.
