'Need' ... A Poem written by Big Virge 15/4/2018

Now If THESE WORDS Are TRUE... ???

And The NEEDS of The MANY...
OUTWEIGH The Needs of The Few...

How On Earth Do Politicians...
Get To Be The Ones Whose Views...
CREATE SO MAN Visions...
That DO MORE Than DISPROVE...
That The MANY Get Conditions...
That BENEFIT... Their Moves... !?!

Cos' To Me TOO MANY FEUD... !!!
OVER Views The FEW Conclude...
To Be What's BENEFICIAL...
Because They Deal In TRUTH...

And Of Course SUBSTANTIAL PROOF...
That Moves They PUSH Through Parliament...
Are For... " The Masses Good "... ?!?

Well It's Pretty CLEAR Their Argument...
Is WEAK Just Like... " Tame Shrews "...

Because It's CLEAR Their OPULENCE...
Is KEPT... "WITHIN Their Crews"... !!!

Crews of GREEDY MONEY Men...
And … CERTAIN Women Too... !!!!
Are Living OFF The MANY...
Who WATCH Them On Their TELLYS...
Running Talk That's... SMELLY... !!!

Because While They Have PLENTY...
The MANY Now Have Less...
Than Underclasses Left...
To LIVE Under DURESS...
And HIGH LEVELS of STRESS... !!!!!

Whose NEEDS Are Swept Like Leaves................................
INTO The Breeze Like... FALLACIES...
We Hear In Speech From LEADERS and M.P.'s... !!!!!

Who Seem To NEED MUCH MORE...
Than People Who ARE POOR... ?!!!?

Whose NEEDS Now Create Deeds...
REVOLVING Around GREED And The Ability To FEED... !?!

FOOD BANKS On FIRST WORLD Streets... ?!?
Now FEED The Theme That... " Political Schemes "...
Are FAR FROM.................................. " SWEET "..... !!!!!

When It Comes To The MANY...
Whose Balance of Life Is NOW... UNsTeaDY... !!!!!
NO Duracell... Or... EVEREADY... !!!!

Just SMART Phone Tech …
That NEEDS To Be CHECKED.
But Checks Are NOT APPLIED Like... " Plots "... !!!

To Put A STOP To The Kind of WRONGS...
That AFFECT The NEEDS of Our YOUNG Peeps'... !!!!
Who Are NOW Being GROOMED In Online CHATROOMS... !!!

What Society's DEEMED...
As A... " Human NEED "... ?!?
Now NEEDS To Be SCREENED...
To STOP The... incrEASE...
of ABUSIVE DEEDS...
By Those Whose NEEDS...
Lead To HUMAN TRAGEDIES...... !!?!!

What They WANT Is WRONG...
Cos' it Causes PROBLEMS... !!!!!

You See WANTS and NEEDS …
Have DIFFERENT Speeds... !!!
And DON'T Always FULFIL Your Dreams... !!!

So THESE Last Words Are Ones To HEED... !!!!!
Humanity Is STEEPED In HYPE and FALSE Beliefs...

That DO NOT Always Feed...
The PEOPLES' Energies With POSITIVITY.... !!!!!

That RISES ABOVE Our...
... FOOLISH WANTS... !!!
of... VANITY and GREED... !!!

Cos' It's Time For The Few...
To Start To... FUEL...

What The PEOPLE...
..... REALLY.....

.... " NEED "....
