Governments
In ancient Greece, their world was a democracy.
Modern times have changed its face by hypocrisy,
occurring when man desired an autocracy,
and the power of a rich aristocracy.
The formation of a large, scale bureaucracy,
rid the people of their personal privacy.
Stealing the self is millennium piracy.
Human rights are in need of strong advocacy.
Once the nation, under God, a theocracy,
a world of leaders have made a neocracy,
a whole new set of rules to stop mobocracy.
Can we just live our lives without conspiracy?

democracy-a system of government by the whole population
autocracy-government ruled by one man
theocracy-a form of government in which God or a deity is recognized as the supreme civil ruler
neocracy- a new government
mobocracy- government ruled by the mob
