Sub-Jug-Ation
Sub-jug-ation,
We are as a nation.
From the tops of our knitted hair,
To the nails placed everywhere.
Head, ears, eyes, and toes,
We set off metal detectors with a twist.
Sub-jug-ation,
How the media turns our attention.
First as beauty they behold,
To dress fit for any mold.
How we feel, play, or sleep,
We feel like yoyo's from the deep.
Sub-jug-ation
If we are lucky enough to have all we need,
They tell us to need more,
While others bleed.
Failure to comply,
You must not have heard!
Turn on your electronic,
Repeated messages sink right in.
Sub-jug-ation,
People who believe what they are told,
Never look at what they behold!
