Watch the Words You Use Online
Watch the Words You Use Online
By Elton Camp
Be careful of words filled with hate
Bomb, death, president, assassinate
For keywords, Sam does search
Allah, mosque, guns and church
This poem likely has their attention
Because these words I dared mention
If there’s a midnight knock at my door,
You can bet I won’t use ‘em anymore
Freedom of speech we may have still
Keyword searches the right will chill
The Alien and Sedition Acts revived
Government censorship is still alive
