A political poem, written during a history class
Freedom's Soliliquy




Devious dream,
an everpresent coup.
Lightning quick revolution.
Masochistic government, ruling through pain.
Evil commoners, "Don't follow their demon dream!"
Government rally, propaganda is the key.
Anarchy is blocked, revolution moves to the cell.
Terrorist action, "Government hides the truth?"
War declared, "Our enemy is who?"
The Man reassures, "We know who!"
Decisive battle, inexhonerable victory.
People silenced, the many crush the few.
The government offers protection, safety through control.
Not everything is lost, but its hard to battle uphill.
Descent is on the rise, freedom their goal.
A fight to death, the mutual stranglehold.


Safety: the double edged sword
