Freedom Denied

July 4th, 2005

Our fundamental freedoms are being denied

as the threat of terrorism

robs our people of their national pride.

Our Constitution and Bill of Rights

have lost their edge

As Homeland Security rears it's empty head.

Those truths once thought to be self-evident

are no longer recognized

and our personal property rights

are now the target of government enterprise.

How can we celebrate liberty

while completely hypnotized?

Politics

An insane reaction on an institutional scale

to insure the false belief

that those who cannot govern themselves

can govern others if allowed to prevail'

That overreacting to every situation

after it has already taken place

is somehow beneficial to the entire human race.

That's Politics!

O.K. I know it's not poetic and doesn't really rhyme,

It's simply my reaction at this time

when sitting on the fence

seems to make more sense, than committing yet another

political offense.
