The Plot Thickens

Oh here we go again,
time to be force fed dogmatic propaganda all done in vain.

Another sick form of medicine and policy,
against all forms of rational logic it's considered heresy.

At the discretion of someone else's whim,
hoping the outcome of their next victim is grim.

Another life destroyed to cover their own hide,
more royal recognition for them to boost their pride.

This over reaction is not necessary, your logic is deluded,
if need be on my part the situation will be feuded.

I've never hurt anyone except to bruise your self admiration,
If you're so concerned for me then "let it go" and defer your temptation.

Like a witch hunt I must stand firm and face my fate,
I will not bend before I break.
