"We The People"

"We The People"

A Poem by Muse
"

Wake up sheeple!

"
We The People getting raped and bullied down
So many without a job, so many wearing a frown
Presidents, lawmakers, and cheaters sit up high
Wiping their asses with our blood stained money
Vacationing, drinking, dancing and parading a crown.
 
Many of you worship a counterfeit of a man
So smart, he needs a teleprompter to talk the talk
Still waiting I am for him to walk the walk
I don't care if my thoughts are not your own
We each have the freedom to make our voices known.
 
Pay attention and wake the hell up all of you
Damn you if you think this does not affect what you do
Our forefathers are rolling over in their graves
Our Bill of Rights is hitting the shredder
How in hell will this make our lives better!

Amazingly, politics are so similar from country to country that this is relatable. I could tell you horror stories about our province, and wrote a couple poems like this myself now and again. Democracy really is a "lessor of the evils" sort of game, and for some reason the smart people are always on the wrong side of the vote.

We're mad as hell and we're not going to take it anymore..
We shouldn't turn to anarchy but we should certainly let our feelings be known....if no way else than at least the polling booth. This was a good start and a good write..perhaps you should send it to your congressman or woman....you know the one(s) resigning on a daily basis for corruption, vice, and immoral behavior...what a joke we have become.... thanks for keeping it alive and yes, It DOES still matter,

If there were three things I'd could to jettison into outerspace it would be
politicians religion and the wealhty and not necessarily in that order!
