Sceptic Poems

CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE (Mike Smelt 2020)

At what point do people say enough is enough?

Does life have to get even more rough?

When will the public get out on the streets?

The message is clear from the endless tweets.

The truth is all out there, the charts are clear.

We need to move it up, to the next gear.

We have to get out there in open revolt.

And refuse to do, as we’ve been told.

Our children need to get back to school.

We cannot accept this dictatorial rule.

Something unsavoury is clearly going on.

Our civil liberties have nearly all gone.

Are you really happy to be tracked and traced?

Our way of life completely displaced.

Don’t put that muzzle on your face!

It adds to the fear, a national disgrace.

See your friends, go and mingle.

Have that date, if you’re single.

Call around, host that party.

Go to the gymn, go to Karate.

Crowds of us need to make a stand.

To stop our freedoms being canned.

The power is ours, to make it stop.

And finish the psychopaths at the top.

I REFUSE (Mike Smelt 08/20)

I refuse to be muzzled

I refuse to be masked

I refuse to keep my distance

I refuse to do as I’m asked

I refuse the rhetoric

I refuse the hand poison

I refuse to listen to nonsense

I refuse the bent reason

I refuse the restrictions

I refuse the lockdown

I refuse to avoid friends

I refuse to avoid town

I refuse not to see family

I refuse to avoid the crowds

I refuse to hear more bullshit

I refuse not to sing aloud

I refuse not to shout

I refuse not to sneeze

I refuse to be cowed

By a media disease

THEY DIED OF COVID 19 (Mike Smelt 2020)

My Grandma had a heart attack.

But she died of Covid 19.

Well she was old and sick and frail.

It was for the best, I know that sounds mean.

My mates Uncle committed suicide.

But he died of Covid 19.

He’d been depressed for some time beforehand.

After being forced into quarantine.

Dave dad, well he choked to death.

But he died of Covid 19.

It was a really sad turn of events.

He was eating a loaf of Soreen.

His brother was eaten by Piranhas.

But he died of Covid 19.

He went for a swim in the Amazon.

And he coughed, the last time he was seen.

Stuart’s uncle got run over by a bus.

But he died of Covid 19.

He’d been forced to wear a face nappy.

And he didn’t see it coming, poor Dean.

Peter’s son got bitten by a Great White.

But he died of Covid 19.

He’d been out swimming from his patrol boat.

And was seen spluttering by his fellow marine.

Prince Philip crashed his Land Rover.

But he died of Covid 19.

His missus told him he shouldn’t be driving.

It’s the last time he saw the Queen.

Old Mary got food poisoning.

But she died of Covid 19.

She’d eaten a dodgy prawn sandwich.

That had turned her totally green..

I don’t know about you, but it’s not very clear

Who has actually died from Covid 19.

There will be years of accusations and cover ups.

And the truth will never be seen.

THE HEROES OF SCEPTISISM (Mike Smelt 2020)

Peter Hitchens was the earliest

To challenge the conventional view

Toby Young started Lockdown Sceptics

When the alternative narrative grew

The In Proportion 2 project

Has been superb at giving context

Challenging the accepted narrative

And what might be coming next

Daniel Levitt on twitter

The son of a Nobel Prize winner

Challenging the science head on

The media will see him a sinner

Susan Pearson in the Telegraph

She has been excellent throughout

Challenging the treatment of children

Shutting schools, what’s that all about?

A big shout to Lord Sumption

A former Chief Justice you know

Is there anyone more respected?

If there is I would like to know

Hugh Osmund the business leader

He knows about the economic hurt

Millions of people made unemployed

Trampled on like they were dirt

Danilel Hanann the Journalist & MEP

Has tried to get the point across

But he has been ignored also

The Government don’t give a toss

Dr John Lee in the spectator

Covering the death count scandal

His brilliant detailed analysis

Cutting through decisions like a vandal

Professor Knut Wittkowski

If only Wittys mind was so clear

Promoted herd immunity from the beginning

If we had listened we wouldn’t be here

Professor Dolores Cahill

Her credentials leave you no doubt

Her direct speech and charisma

She has the experience and the clout

Simon Dolan wants to keep Britain free

And challenged the government in court

He is the true lockdown hero

Putting his reputation on the line without thought

So why have these people been silenced

They have the credentials you see

Unfortunately most people out there

Are getting brainwashed by the BBC.

BEDWETTER (Mike Smelt 08/20)

What are you living in fear for?

You have a duty to live your life

The way that you are acting

It’s like you’ve a bunny boiler for a wife

You’re staying in your home too much

You’re wasting precious time

When you realise you’ve nothing to be scared of

You’ll see that bedwetting is a crime

You see, your fear is irrational

The virus is no worse than the flu

You’re missing out on vital experiences

And seem happy to be told what to do

You’re listening to all the propaganda

And watching too much BBC

Your mind is completely brainwashed

Please listen to some proportionality

You see, this isn’t much of a killer

For most you’ll be ill for two days

It’s not like the 1980’s

Like AIDS was for the Gays

Unless you are really old and ill

The danger is very small

This nonsense was supposed to be done in 3 weeks

But it’s going on to the Fall

So get out there and start living

It’s what you’re on the Earth to do

Come on out and let’s enjoy ourselves

The sun is shining, the sky is blue.

POLITICAL AFFILIATIONS (Mike Smelt 2020)

There is no political home left

For a vehement lockdown sceptic

The ridiculous decisions, backed by all

The parties have become quite septic

All sceptics seem to be on the right

Not a comfortable place for me

But what is right is right, and wrong is wrong

I don’t have strong affiliations you see

Why is the left so silent?

When our civil liberties are stepped on

It’s as if they don’t care about freedoms

Will they wake up when they’re all gone?

Our movements have been curtailed

Our children haven’t been to school

Our workplaces have been shut down

Our leaders are unable to rule

The most vulnerable in society

Who the left are supposed to care about

Have been trodden on and left to rot

I’ve not heard any of them shout

The Government are universally hated

Labour and Liberals should be making hay

But all they seem to care about

Is for a seasonal virus to go away

So who is there left to vote for?

When they are all as bad as each other

I have lost total faith with all of them

Next time I won’t even bother.

SECOND WAVE (Mike Smelt 2020)

AS the deaths disappear to nothing

And the virus has gone away

And nobody is being hospitalized

True cases go down day by day

You would think this would be good news

But all I hear the media crave

Is bad things are just around the corner

And there must be a second wave

Nothing about empty hospitals

Nothing about cancer deaths

Nothing about T cell immunity

Only doom mongering til their last breaths

It is a seasonal respiratory virus

That has acted the same way as others

It’s just not affecting people anymore

Not our parents, our sisters or brothers

Where is this second wave coming from?

There is no sign that I can see

The media, well they are the virus

Stopping people from living easy

Why are we wearing face nappies?

When they were deemed useless from the start

What other dehumanisation have they planned?

How about a blanket ban on farts!

CENSORSHIP (Mike smelt 2020)

It’s plainly obvious

We are being had

It’s clear the virus

Was never that bad

Professors from Oxford

Their voices subdued

Trying to speak

But being screwed

Scientists on social media

Are being blocked

Trying to get their point across

But constantly being mocked

American Doctors

Taking a stand

But being cancelled

By popular demand

Facts and charts

From experts who know

Are being silenced

With tales of woe

Facemasks don’t work

The experts said

They were shut up

And sent to bed

The modelling is nonsense

Said the men with the stats

But we’ll cover that up

With bullshit caveats

Nobel prize winners

Showing what’s going on

But the credence given

Is as good as none

Proven treatments

That could have saved deaths

Have been put a stop to

As they drew their last breaths

Immunity enhancing treatments

Being forgotten about

The eminent professors

Trying to shout

The media and Government

Are trying to con us

Time to take a stand

The onus is on us
