Array ( [sid] => 78143 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => BUSH'S GREY MEN [time] => 2005-01-02 12:57:48 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Their grey hands
and grey heads
will make our future
dead

No colours anymore
No difference
Simply grey and dark
Obedience

They pose as saviours
but bring their own bars
to create our prison
here among the stars

They posture as strong
but in essence are weak
Dealing in lies
All futures bleak

They bring only darkness
again and again
Their ugly infection
Spreading the pain

This conservative force
Blown from 9/11
Is straight from hell
and not heaven

Well-meaning followers
delude the rest
thinking conformity
is for the best

Only time will show
how wrong-headed this is
Of a cultural death
this is the kiss

See Bush and his "devils"
Show the way to a hell
That only time will show
and events will tell

BUSH'S GREY MEN

a very interesting, thought provoking man.
Every day I am left wondering how people can
support this man after what he's done to Iraq
hopefully people like you will free people from
their ignorance. Good poem man.
