“Drive” ... A Poem written by Big Virge 4/6/2020

Location

United Kingdom

Now When My Mental DRIVES My Mind To Write Rhymes...
Their Range of Wordplay... Spreads FAR And WIDE... !!!
From Social Crimes To Relationship Strife...
To The Type of Things With Societal STINGS... !!!

So Some Things I’ve Written Are ANGER Driven... !!!
But If You Really Listen... Or Read ATTENTIVELY...

What You’ll Find And See...
Is That I’m Driven By Themes Like... PEACE And UNITY... !!!

Because Equality...
Now Seems... OUT of REACH... !!!
In Times Like These...
Where Humanity’s Drive To Stay ALIVE...

Will Require VACCINES...
And Wearing Masks PUBLICLY... !?!

Where Jobs Are Being Lost...
Because Corona Has SHOCKED As Well As LOCKED... !!!

MORE Than Businesses Down It’s Now Causing FROWNS...
And VOCIFEROUS Sounds As Some SCREAM And SHOUT... !!!
About Freedoms DRIVEN To Become... "WELL HIDDEN"... !!!

The Drive of Many Has Become... UNSTEADY... !!!
When Peoples World Vision Is Driven By... Divi - sion...
And A Whole LOT MORE Than... EVER Before... !!!!!!!!!
5G To The FORE... While New Laws Enforce...
That... Probable Cause ISN’T Needed Anymore... !?!
When It Comes To How Police Now Deal With Crowds...
And Race Issues Now Driven To FEUDS...
With Police On Streets That Are Driven By Teams...

of... Partying Peeps...
Who Now Hold Parties ILLEGALLY..... !!!
There’s A Drive Right Now...
That’s Driven By Louts And Political Clowns...
When It Comes To Their Chatter About WHAT Now Matters...
Or Should I Say WHO... With NO DOCTOR In View... !?!
Who Can Calm Down The Moods of Those With DARKER Hues... !!!!
Who’ve Now Had ENOUGH ...
of Being DRIVEN To RUN By Policeman With Guns... !!!!
Or Those With The DRIVE To DEPRIVE Black Lives...
By DRIVING Their Knees Onto Necks To Impede Our Ability To Breathe... !!!!!!
You See It’s Drives Like THESE That NOW... DRIVE Me... !!!
To Write Poetry That Speaks About... REALITY Themes... !!!!!
Like How We’re Now Driven To.............. Social Distance... !?!?!

It’s A Mission That’s DRIVEN By Powerful Thoughts And A Whole Lot More...
That Feeds My Mind To Sit And Write About SOCIETAL Crimes Like Government LIES... !!!
And These DARK Times That Really AREN’T So Nice... !!!
That Are DRIVING Some Minds To Embrace SUICIDE... !!!!!!
Even Minds Like MINE That... CREATIVELY SHINE... !!!
Now RECOGNISE That Life’s NEW Design...
Is Providing ROUGH Rides For A LOT of Lives... !!!
Who Are Simply Trying To Just... SURVIVE... !!!
And This Is WHY When It Comes To This Life...
And The Current Vibe That’s Now Spread WORLDWIDE..... !!!

It’s REALLY Getting HARD ...
To Keep A BALANCED Mind...
That MAINTAINS Your...

....... “ DRIVE “...... !!!
