"Open“... A Poem written by Big Virge 24/5/2020

Location

United Kingdom

In A Time Where Zones...
Across The Globe Are... “CLOSED”... !!!

To AVOID Being... Bro ken... !!!

I Think That It’s Wise To Keep Our Minds OPEN... !!!

OPEN To LIES And Truths RECOGNISED...
In These... INCREDIBLE Times... !!!

Cos’ This Corona Has Closed...
The World As A WHOLE... !!!

... Isn’t That AMAZING... ?!?

Were You EVER THINKING...
That Things Could Come To This... ?!?

Borders... CLOSED... !?!
Social Contact... " Zoned "... ?!?

Toilet Roll Shown...
To Be Treated Like GOLD... ?!?

I Mean It’s Hard To Stay OPEN...
When Everything’s... CLOSED...
Or In... "LOCKDOWN Mode"... !?!?!

So What IS Now Open... ???
Well New Tech That Is Showing...
Where Life Will Be Going...

And Work That Would Seem...
To Feed... TECHNOLOGY...

Just Like This New Thing...
That They’re Calling... " 5G "... ?!?

So Now TECHNOLOGY Is Now Taking The LEAD... ???

Because Humanity Is Now LOST And At Sea............................. !!!

I Mean SERIOUSLY... Does Anyone Really Know...
What’s Behind This New Low And How Life Can Now Flow... ?!?
With NO MORE Live Shows OUTSIDE of Folks Homes... !?!

NO MORE FREEDOM Road... !!!
Even Sherlock Has Stopped Cos’ He’s Now Home ALONE... !!!
ISOLATED..... From Watson Because of This Nonsense... !?!

Nonsensical Closures Because of EXPOSURE...
To A Virus That’s Opened A Problem That's POTENT... !!!

So For Now... NO MORE JOKING... !!!
Because No One Is Knowing How Many Are Open...
To Joining The Quotient of Deaths OVERFLOWING... !?!

Like VOLATILE Oceans... NO DANNY But Motions...
SINISTER Just Like Seven... A Pitt Filled With Kevin’s...
Not Lately Cos’ Spacey’s Picked A Number Like... “ Slevin’ “... !!!

Not Lucky But UGLY Just Like That Doll CHUCKY... !!!
And I’m Not Being Silly... Ask Jennifer Tilly... !!!

So Their Deaths Remain OPEN...
Because They Are Tokens of Systems Now... B R O K E N... !!!!

And NO I’m NOT JOKING Because My Minds Open...
To NOT Losing Focus On These CORRUPT P.O.T.U.S.... !!!
I’m Like Bond Driving LOTUS When It Comes To These Locust... !!!

Okay They’re NOT LOCUST... !!!
But They Swarm Like Bees HOPELESS... !!!
of Tasting That Honey Cos’ They’re All About Money...
These Closures Are Funny Cos’ Things Won’t Be Sunny...

It Would Seem For... SOME TIME... !!!
Which Seems To Be Why I’m Inspired To Write...
So MANY New Rhymes In These CRAZY TIMES... !!!

Right Now It Feels Like This Just CANNOT Be Right... ?!?
Even When There’s Sunshine... Lots of Folk Stuck INSIDE... ?!?

Because They’re AFRAID of... Losing Their Lives... !?!?!
Or Is It Their MINDS There May Well Be A RISE In Rates of... SUICIDES... !!!

Because of Lockdowns Where Brains Have Shutdown...
Because of The Sounds Coming From CERTAIN Mouths...
That Keep Spreading DOUBT About What SURROUNDS Whilst Corona’s Around... !?!

So MUCH Has...CLOSED DOWN...
That Re-Opening Now Will Cost Billions of Pounds...
And Yes... Dollars Too... !!!
Or Maybe It’s YEN That Will Finally Rule... ?!?

And Let’s Not Forget About Russia’s Presence... !!!
And How Could I Forget This... US President... !!!?!!!

Who CAN'T Keep His Mouth CLOSED... !!!
It’s ALL Become A JOKE WITH NO LAUGHTER In Tow... !!!

That’s Now Way Beyond Quotes From Political Folks... !!!
Cos’ The Seeds That They’ve Sown Have Now Left Things BROKEN... !!!!!!

So This Verse Is Focussed On Pushing The NOTION...

That It’s Time To ENERGISE... Our Minds To Be.......

................................ OPEN .................................. !!!!!!!
