Thought Police Be careful what you say, be careful who you say it to. It might be heard... by someone that does not like it! They will come to your door, and even the score, even if there is no game involved at all. They will just call, on you, that's who, even if you live at the zoo. Truth beaten up on the sidelines. Propaganda given an upper hand. Media stroking the boss... of the paper, the airways, and the fairways, no longer fair at all. Criminals on the streets, let go for their crimes, to make room for more important... lawbreakers, earth-shakers, and memory makers. Fearing their words, may yet have power, for even an hour. Those that do not go along, with the climate change agenda, and will not take the shot, or get the clout or rub on each other to get the pox, like a fox... (in heat) will be dealt with in the darkness of powers at their central station. The moon is full of men, that have given their lives over, to cover the reality, we live in. The rationing of water, then food, and gas, only the beginning... of the end. We will all go without, but don't shout. Be quiet and accept what is ahead, the dread enough to fill the voting ballot box full of hope... or treason?

Just like Frank Zappa's 'WHO are the Brain Police?' on his first album, 'Hungry Freaks Daddy.' Positively Orwellian around here these days...

Shalom, shalom Poetess Ann. Poignant. Unsettling. Timely contribution. Things were bad under Trump 1. Worse under Biden. If these a Trump 2 presidency, it's gonna be Tyranny & third world banana republic in USA. Lord rebuke evil leaders, amen in Jesus's name.
