Privacy.


Does writing require knowledge of the psyche?

Insight! Looking at that which is out of sight!

If we think on people and their habits,

or what they seem to do or seem to be,

do we find answers without therapy?


Should our character sketch draw,

in a picture frame, the elaborate without flaw?

Round or square the boundaries wrought,

in outline clear as daylight ought

to be precise and elementary.


First impressions count, predetermined!

Our own exposure and self worth determined.

How should we present others?

Surely privacy is a worthy object we should not smother?

It is time to bring the riotous act back into a rational cover.


1984 has arrived! Twenty years late;

but the sentiments detained proliferate.

Now encourage the world to turn upon an axis that now grates

and with foolish steps, goose march forward most irate,

Outside the democratic or republican state.


Trudea once said, 'that the Government do not belong in the citizens bedroom.'

It is time to apply the same maxim to the security of the person.

Atrocities are committed when individuals have no control over their own fate.

Burning of witches and non persons is promoted, when rights are not defended;

when those who want more power are able to take covetously.


There is a great threat!

Individuals are coerced into believing the unbelievable.

Truth is often manipulated.

Those who profit contribute to chaos.

Not all facts presented are representative.


News without caveat is sick and sickening!

Unqualified reporting merely impresses images.

The mind is bombarded without pertinence.

The conscious and subconscious is glazed.

Slow in-sensitisation deadens each of us.


Cultures are destroyed!

Fear is allowed to fester.

Assault becomes a daily occurrence.

We lose sense of proportion.

Life loses its sense of value.


Privacy requires legislation!

Those who do not respect it are the worse offenders;

Penalties should be imposed severely;

Individuals have rights that take precedence.

It is time for those in the political arena,

to take control, to defend what is right!
