Threat To Democracy

"THREAT TO DEMOCRACY" Democracy has a different meaning It depends on where you are leaning There's always a cost for freedom Your price is based on what you want to pay People generally take life for granted Never realizing that it's democracy People should be gracious and show gratitude The guidance and direction is the latitude Your political stripes doesn't matter Or will you simply say, pitter patter If we lose our right to democracy We will be at the mercy of a Dictator Banning books and protecting crooks Believe it or not, heading towards a government, one size fits all Minority rules the majority, how does that make sense People undecided on how to vote, stradling the fence Making America great again, what a joke Understand what's at stake and let them know that you spoke Voice your concerns, using the ballot box to leave your vote Things you take for granted, will no longer exist in this episode The threat to democracy Is accepting an autocracy Idiocy, hipocrisy, conspiracy, illiteracy The threat to democracy Written by Floyd Neal May 16, 2024 Inspiration for poem A divided country
