God Bless America

A Poem by Becky
"

I'm sick of following the rules...

"

Stand here.
Look like this.
Move this way.
Don’t step out of place.
Don’t look the wrong way.
Speak only these words.
And for the love of God,
Whatever you do,
Do not think for yourself.
This includes reflection,
Expression,
Emotion in general.
It’s not allowed here.
Believe only what we tell you.
Don’t second guess it.
Which of course falls under thinking anyway.
Anyone that contradicts us,
Is insane,
And shouldn’t be trusted.
Probably mentally ill.
Don’t pay attention to those lunatics.
They’ll be humming our tune soon enough.
Follow these simple rules,
To ensure your freedom and liberty.
God Bless America.

I so loved the last nine lines of this write.
This is such a truthful write.
So nicely written and said.
