The F-O-L-D Follow Our Logic Deviant

How are you my pet?
Have all you need?
Are you all set?
Have all your wants and needs met?

Good, now it’s time to pay 
With your vote for me today 
Prove your loyalty and appreciation 
To further our political masturbation
 
Of you my obedient pet 
Just obey 
And please don’t fret
 
We need your mindless conformity 
As we employ our brand of deformity 

Time to keep quiet and do as your told 
As we bring you to heel 
If I may be so bold
 
It’s the same story 
That’s old and retold
 
We prey 
You obey 
And fit the mold 
Of soulless servitude 
To the heartless and cold 
Surprise, surprise 
Your existence has sold 
To the lowest bidder 
Is what I’m told 

Now come my pet 
And submit to the F. O. L. D.

I loved his sarcastic remarks regarding the follow me even though I don't know where I'm going kind of rhetoric. Yea, that's about what this country has come to. Well written and straight with no chaser!

Carolyn, I appreciate your recognition of sarcasm, the older I get the more I seem to complain about everything. I'm quickly turning into a grumpy old man LOL. Thank you very much for taking time to respond. It means a great deal to me.
