Hi Kelly We as sensitive poets are aware of these subtleties. I have always had the courage to think for myself and have landed in the doghouse for my somewhat drastic comments but poetry is a fine method of diguising anger. Thanks for looking at my efforts. Loved hearing from you, Greetings, Paul

Hi Michael, I love ratting the cages of politicians. I am also a composer of Rock, Classical and Jazz therefore I have very little tolerance for the obvious manipulation that is the prognosis of the days we are now living in. I am also a peace loving hippy. Thanks a lot for your interest in my poems.Greetings Paul

I have long thought that independent thinking is a lost (if seldom possessed) quality. Yes, society indoctrinates us all from birth with its concepts. What is desireable, beautiful, patriotic etc. What we should want, wear, think. Few question. Fewer truly think for themselves. Actions are taken without thought (which would change MOST actions) Even I can be unsure sometimes if my decisions are my own or, at least in some 'guiding' way, subconsciously manifested by societal and cultural norms.

Aloha Paul... One for reading between the lines... I will to spend a few more moments on these little blurbs of interest... not that all this is not out there but, coming from you, and being posted on this site... curious George? Conditioning of Societal Norms? initiating brainwaves? influences and distractions... communicating so easily? predicaments, problems, anxiety... in tranquility? regulations, indoctrination, manifestation, cynical connotations? In this nation? Surely You Jest... and that is the first quatrain... whatever... I love this term! Believe me my friend... I can dig a deep whole out of the nosh in this... but later... I must be off to work... Hi Ho! All of the best from this life, to you, and all of your relations... Michaelw1two
