You're going to take nothing from no one
because debts get in the way
you're going to take nothing from no one
so you can say the words you want to say
never going to be part of society
because in society you make mistakes
your mistakes will be your own
but you'll make the rest of us pay
you're not gonna let anyone ask about
what made you so selfish and mean
that stuff is for your mind only
so the rest of us can’t twist your dreams
you’ve turned away from science
from politicians and academics mad
you’ll make all your own decisions
take responsibility for all you have
and tell the rest of us crazy mixed up people .....
endlessly what to do
ask us to think about consequences
how they should be made up to you
be the individuals you want us to be
enjoy a state of narcissism
ignore fake laws and social responsibility
and never pay a tax again
in this false deep state society
you always challenge the facts
even though facts keep the country afloat
despite weight of your discredited attacks
ever suspecting conspiracy afoot
never recognising the rules
that keep order and protect
you ignore useful social tools
to leave the rest of us a wreck
in the name of sovereign citizenry
seek to look only after yourself
applying your proclivities exclusively
to personal wants by stealth
take nothing from no one
except defence roads and schools
take nothing from no one
because national interest is for fools
take nothing from no one
abuse generous public infrastructure
take nothing from no one
except sewers, clean streets and water
take nothing from no one
make your own rules then lecture
the rest of us - better educated
than you a pseudo educated creature
the rest of us appreciate
degrees of being regulation bound
we are more common sensible
than you social media complainers
with few justifications to be found
so take nothing from nobody
except all the things you need
only take all the good stuff
leave everyone else to bleed
take nothing from no one
and never think to give anything back
you will keep taking all you want
until cohesive society cracks

Phwoar!!! God, I loved this poem. Im ginna have to shoot you an email about sharing this one Saturday morning.
You got the messaging on point, the shackled measured vitriol, and you said it so succinctly. Geez, this is good. 🫡

Glad you approve Nigel. This is about a couple of Western Australian “sovereign citizens” who along with many others waste significant public resources by not paying their way, refusing their social responsibilities, tying up courts with sheer stupidity and having the gall to recommend their nonsensical behaviour to others. Happily, at least these two were finally sentenced to time in prison.
I write the occasional political statement. I was wondering if I would cop a bit of flack for this one. However, with such a tiny audience for my writing that risk is in fact very, very low. If you want to do something with it feel free.

The algorithm decides what is visible, so I wouldn’t worry too much about offending anyone..yiu gotta speak your mind anyway.
I wish more countries would punish these crooks. Unfortunately, the systems are so corrupted that this case is a glitch in the matrix.
A great share, though.
