It’s old man Winter knocking on the door been out there so long he’s chilled to the core.
The snow keeps falling and temperature too but don’t let him in can’t tell what he’ll do.

Thank you,
The Resistance
We are the resistance
But do not worry, we don’t resist
We renew, and nothing can resist renewal
The Truth
We all say we love the truth
But few of us can stand it naked
The Data
It’s all there in black and white
We need only open our eyes
The Scoop
The hottest news stories
Are not those that are hidden
But those that are unseen
As we look the other way
The Details
The devil is illusive; not because he is fast
But because he is decidedly deliberate
And thus we fail to discern his moves
The Great Reset (2020-2025?)
What was once black and white
Becomes grey
And what was once grey
Becomes black and white
The Dialogue
The monologue seeks to be heard
The dialogue seeks to be understood
The Tipping Point
There is indeed a tipping point
It is either here or there
But when it comes, we shall know
The War
Youthful vigour and dreams
Impaled upon the spear of archaic ideas
The Racket
Young people fight and die
The shrewd go to the bank
The Lie
We wake from our slumber
Wipe the sleep from our eyes
And realize that all is not as it seems
The Theory
The theory is criticized so vehemently
So vehemently
Not because it is improbable
Not because it is unfounded
Not because it is blasphemous
But because,
After much careful consideration
Stringent forensic analysis
Rigorous cross-referencing
And healthy debate,
It may
In fact
Be true.
