Thought

numbers numbers
assign me to numbers 
mark me born
give me a number
stamp where I live
keep a good eye 

to a number 
my house will be 
known

I go to the bank, 
everyone else 
does 
they give me numbers 

I apply for a job,
land a job,
like all others,
they must see card,
picture, number 

am I an alien?
do I 
scare that much?

everyone has a car, 
better throw a number 

hell let the rogues be
free

will the earth die
or chaos erupt?

will all die in war? 
over religion,
a color,
or a place? 

will nature be
vanished?

will power be granted?

will the lawless
scoundrels savage for death?

will people starve while
others boast?

NO 
we must have law to refrain
the crazies in life 
to doom evil
in the grass
