Walls crumbled
And faceless fortunes trembled
Setback to be sorted
Come what may
Ideologues with money
And a purpose
Beware democracy
When big boys play
Acronyms that hide
The bigger picture
Analysed to target
Prejudice
How elections swayed
By our own data
Now question why and how
We’ve come to this
Across their chess board
Watch the right-wing rising
Authoritarian
Their links in sight
Make haste
For walls of separation
Foreshadow yet
The longer, darker nights
What say you
To covert operations
Psychometric management
Bulls-eyed
What say you
To hooded cloak and dagger
Proclaiming there are reasons
Why they spy
Is this for safety
Management of terror
Profiles that will keep you
Safe in bed
Or is this to trawl on populace
Endeavour
To manipulate and fix
What’s in all heads
