Hope you like my poem!
They hid in the shadows,
Ready to pounce.

They try to control you,
they try to take away our rights.

Freedom of speech,
The right to bare arms.

It is a privilege that we take for granted.
If we don't fight for it,
If we don't use it,
If we don't think we want it,
They take it.

So protect it,
Hold it dear,
Cause it matter.

They hid in the shadows,
Ready to pounce.

Who are they you wonder?
Figure it out,
For if I told you it would mean nothing.

You would not believe me if I did tell you.

So hold it close,
Protect it,
Because it is all we have left.
It is our salvation,
It is the key to survival.

Don't let them take it,
Don't let them in,
Don't let them control you.
