Analysis of 'Jacked' To The Core



With every thought like some prayer,
unknown to initiates or even myself.
We've cast our spells out everywhere,
like prepackaged drama off the shelf.

Consensual agreement's conformity,
perpetuate these illusions reasonably.
Points of view shared in our deformity
uphold a safety net of it's predictability.

I can't own one thought devoid logos,
of the corporate icon 'sigils' implanted.
Every desire supplanted to other goals,
with my verboten suggestion chanted.

Some meta-program runs through-out,
with backdoors etched in rampant hack.
Control is the game rally of silent shout,
mind is wet-ware grist of 'hammer-jack'!

Tracy Bollinger

Always liked to write and have written poems periodically over the years. I've never shared them withanyone except for immediate family. Decided to take the plunge and put some out 'there'. But bearwith me, I don't really know what I'm doing. This is therapy of sorts and I hope to let go of the need to rhyme. It's a mental condition. I recently found out my grandmother used to rhyme all herletters to anyone. Go figure. I hope you all enjoy my ranting! I do like what I've seen other's post. more…
