Society's Cage

By Juggalotus

Inspired by a great novel of Aldous Huxley: "Brave New World"


Deprivation of Art
Deprivation of Choice
For the Sake of Happiness
No one apart
Don't have a voice
No individual matters
Mind in a cage
Society's boundaries
History's gone, loss of Emotion
No violence nor rage
We are what we're bound to be
False happines, Captivity
No Freedom nor Hope
Can't see past society

  • A former member wrote: the mass confusion of the masses; the insanity of the collective consciousness. Im reminded of this all too well whenever I have to take a trip to Vegas; it just makes me sick. But we shall overcome this melancholic madness.

  • A former member wrote: very well done. I've been told about "A Brave New World" for years, but never got around to reading it. Things shall change...
