Anarchist

By mysticventures

The government

rules

The people are

fools

They control your

mind

While the people are

blind



A plethora of

laws

As the people draw

straws

In the election you

choose

While either way you still

lose



They give you a

choice

Yet you still have no

voice

Its an illusion you

see

You can't really be

free



For with freedom there

comes

The beat of the

drums

Calling the people to

march

For the justice they're

parched



With the march comes this

change

That the government's

estranged

No more corporate

tool

Its the people who

rule

    Meh, the government is far from the best thing, but anarchy would never work. People are too evil to self-rule.

    We rule, indeed, but are all too comfortable to rebel... rebellion happens when the people have nothing to lose... and we have stolen too much for that... check out my new work, "think"... and think... :)
