Thought Police


We can’t freely think what we yearn for,
The heavy norms creating constraints, shadowy,
And distressing inner form of judgment,
Slaying the blossoming ideas by shutting the door.
 
This is accurately what the abstraction, ‘Thought Police’, is good at,
But, at times, drawback envelopes it,
The out of the ordinary beings penetrate,
Pronouncing war and making their existence felt.
 
Agreed! The notion, Thought Police, is meant to perish,
Let’s keep the helms of ideas going, yield not to anguish!
