Speech

I cannot talk to you
you cannot talk to me
we cannot talk to each other
what a mess o brother

I cannot think for me
you cannot think for you
we cannot think together
afraid of what it will do.

I cannot speak my mind
 same you will find
trying to keep us in a bind
hoping we all are blind.

I will speak for you
you will speak for me
we have a voice
we still have a choice.

A government of the Party, by the Party, and for the Party does make life difficult for individual thought. Enjoyed! Aloha!
