Notes About The Poem

The ability to think for one's self, must be a desease, maybe it's an illnes certainly a disability, obviously it is not a way of life for many. Maybe it's a condition after one is brainwashed, I mean conditioned. Don't mind me I'm just thinking out loud. Idependence gives me the right right to think FREELY Michael E. Harris July 3rd 2019

Debt Slaves

WHAT ONCE
WAS A RIGHT
APPEARS TO BE GONE.
IN THE NAME OF PROGRESS
THEY MOVED ALONG.
SHEEPLE WERE CONVINCED,
BY A GROUP OF FOOLS,
WHO CLAIM
TO UNDERSTAND THE RULES.
THE FOOLS ONLY SAW
THE DOLLAR SIGNS.
BEING PAID TO ALTER
AND CHANGE YOUNG MINDS.
THE SHEPPLE WERE TOLD,
EVERYTHING'S FREE.
A CRIME IN THEORY
BUT, THE SHEEPLE BELIEVED.
PROMISES,
THAT CAN'T BE MET.
ONLY AMOUNTED 
TO UN-PAYABLE DEBT.
THEY RELINQUISHED 
THEIR FREEDOM
FOR POLITICAL LIES.
BASED ON A STUDY,
THAT SHEEP WERE NOT WISE.
HOW DOES IF FEEL,
TO BE A SLAVE,
DECEIVED AND TRAPPED
INSIDE A MAZE.
KNOWING NOW,
THERE'S A PRICE TO PAY
AS THEY SLAVE 
THEIR LIFE AWAY.
