Just a Thought

In the increasing constriction Of government restriction I offer the following observation Of freedoms suffocation Of daily liberties Savagely curtailed Of your war on everything That has sadly failed Of your attempts to control the masses Becomes comical as it passes Many like me question your sanity Or is it simply blind vanity? Why is it so important to control the mundane? Why is power such a treat? Why relish the suffering at your feet? Do you really believe That you’re the “elite”? I can’t help but laugh at that term Please forgive the disrespect As I snicker for effect To me it’s simply ludicrous Because you’re such a joke The masses you seek to silence Are angry and awoke I wish to simply confide That you might want to step aside Before the masses take you for a ride To your “unfortunate suicide” Are you getting the vibe? Eric (and sometimes not)
