Poetry: Politics

new death chambers
new execution methods
firing squad, gas chambers,
hanging, electrocution,
lethal injection.
nothing other than
cruel and unusual

death is ours, we have no
other claim to fame.
no real material production,
no real evidence of freedom.
we are lab rats, filled with all
that is dishonorable and
in media we are overtaken by
drugs, alcohol, sex.....
fit the mainstream mold

shown no news except mass killings
and corruption litter our 'great' history
our 'great democracy' is washed with
a thick layer of deceit and blood.

welcome to america
land of the free, home of the brave
where you are completely free
to decide what to give your life for
and here is your flag to hide behind.

anti-american? charged with treason
anti-christian? there's loopholes forbidding you
pro-choice? think about the unfeeling fetus
same-sex marriage? you'll go to hell
no illegal immigration? think of how you would feel

so here's your national ID card...
you are proudly number 9254583972548 and
they will be taking your order...
please drive around to the next window please.
