Pattern 1010...(Just a paper in the Box?)

Governments change

(but they don't bring no change)

but that doesn't matter,

because the world is stuck in a recurring defected pattern

1010101010...one zero one zero

it's either money or reputation driven

(there is nothing pure, except for 'pure' evil)

corrupted and bitter

perverted and cruel

it follows a pattern one zero zero

it's a machine

heavily virus infected

loaded with brutalities and atrocities

that have torn down the firewall,

the fortress of the afflicted!

***

unfortunate, but change is minimal and trivial

following strictly the pattern one zero

new faces, new statements,

new news for the day

but it's all in the pattern,

it's just a parade!

i've seen it, i've heard it

i've swallowed it all,

it's a cycle of 'pure' evil

a chronic disease prevailing in all...

***

it's the dilemma choice that rises in me

a citizen who believes in the emancipation of the weak

i'm holding my ballot,

with a religious assurance

that this little paper will bring us ultimate deliverance.

i'm counting on it, casting my hopes

all my fears disappear and i feel things moving on

a citizen, a man, a woman, me...

i'm treated equally!

justice is given for free!!

***

time has past, the votes have been cast,

the results announced

the winners pronounced..

here it comes...

this moment, when i finally realize...

i haven't had a real choice...

...it was just a paper in a box!

another follow-up of the familiar pattern

one zero zero one...

how can i build back the firewall?

can i or this paper bring justice (positive change) to all?
