Piece of poetry designed to bring forward the absurdity of the role/job of "evidence gatherer" hired by private companies whose job description is pretty much taking pictures so to seek to incriminate anyone standing in the way of a company rather than encouraging a constructive dialogue. This shows much on their intentions .....
This piece has been recited within relative and controversial "safety zone" (occupied by a gecko). I did mention i would stay just for the length of it, that I was making sure of my own safety and that I wasn't disturbing any work.... but that prompted the dance of the evidence gatherers who arrived on time for part two, but didn t let me finish inside....... poetry don t seem to reach robot minds...
lyrics
_________part 1__________
Since the time of our Fathers, That’s many lives we’ve built.
We have been Warriors, Hunters, Our enemies we’ve killed.
We supported our Soldiers, Whose Life was stilled
All of this so our Brothers, See their dreams fulfilled.
And all of us, me, you, the others, In Paris, Moscow or Sheffield
Are grateful to our Mothers, For the Love they instilled.
And we’ll always protect our sisters, For in their womb tranquil,
Dorm our children future, To whom we’ll give our will
To whom we’ll give the bill
__________part 2__________
We have been warriors, hunters, Fighting for ideals.
Today we wanna be evidence gatherers*,
To experience Life’s thrills
To explore the mysteries of the Universe,
Around the Sheffield Hills
The Life of the local dwellers, Specie made of Steel.
Speaking is not really our Nature, We’re not anthropophiles
As for favorite scripture, We’ve seen none or very lil
We prefer to live in stricture with no opinion, nill
We’re just here to take a picture, That’s our only skill!
