Deception

We've got a government 
In need of abolishment.
That's said with honesty
And astonishment
Because it hasn't been accomplished yet
Or even attempted
Because every one of our rights
Are being neglected
And every argument that
We make against it
Is quickly rejected
And never again upon
Are they reflected
Because our attentions
Are quickly redirected
By the 4th branch that we
Never elected
