This is Poetry About Life but hey, I can't tell you what to think...
Keep the Change
Poetry About Life by Matthew J. Beard
Keep the Change
Take away your rights to keep you free,
Doesn’t make much sense to me
Spying on the citizens today
You claim it’s for my safety when I’m bound by chains
Obama’s Hitler youth brigade
I’ll take my freedom so you keep the change,
Support the troops by selling them to war
Cause war is peace in 1984.
Do you hear your young ones cry?
Sending them to fight and die
What is your country when you know you’re wrong?
Depleted uranium stains the lungs of children young
Tortured souls, Guantanamo
Might ask why you interrogate them so
Land of free,
Well, I don’t know
You say it’s for me,
But I don’t think so
