Been There Done That

Been there done that

Won’t stand for the crap

Know it inside out

Have heard better shout

Long talk and rhetoric

Imitate and mimic

Select and deselect

All and sundry I detect

Less trust, more unbelief

Emptiness to say the least

Oncoming tsunami, brace

Little hope or not a trace

Everybody has an idea

Every idea a proven way

Square pegs in round holes

All achieving useless goals

Amateur and professional,

Seeking out the sensational,

Trying hard to make a name,

Life for them only a game

Ask me what I think

I’ll tell you without a blink

None can find a solution

To this load of confusion

Methodologies, paradigms

Strategies, intelligent designs

Abound in every way

Yet increasing moral decay

Been there done that

Nothing new, that’s a fact

Folly’s kindred is a fool

Foolishness, his only tool

Politicians, pastors, priests

The greatest to the least

All have a point to prove

Each in his particular groove

  

Yes, I am a skeptic

Fell for many a trick

By persons I believed

I’m tired of being deceived

Been there done that

Away with all the crap

Been fooled oft before

Won’t be fooled anymore

Caught up in the fuss

To satisfy his lust

In man I am bust

But in God I will trust
