PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

don't speak unless spoken to

repeat exactly what you're told to

fall in line

to the left

to the right

fall in line

fall in fucking line

and close your eyes

shut off your mind

and just fall in line

parade around your patriotism

neglect the erosion of your liberties

stripping down the constitution

all in the name of safety and nationalism

keeping you distracted with fear and celebrity

while the police equip themselves like a military

while the politicians steal your future

and hand it to the corporate aristocracy

pushing towards war of some random foreign enemy

when the real enemies of the people reside in DC

don't speak unless spoken to

repeat exactly what you're told to

fall in line

to the left

to the right

fall in line

fall in fucking line

and close your eyes

shut off your mind

and just fall in line

convincing you

"drones spy on every back yard"

"terrorists lurk on every street corner"

"every foreign face is a danger"

while finding any means to tax your last dollar

education is an elitist endeavor

a woman's body belongs to the legislator

freedom of religion means christian

don't speak unless spoken to

repeat exactly what you're told to

fall in line

to the left

to the right

fall in line

fall in fucking line

and close your eyes

shut off your mind

and just fall in line
