The Government (by LEON.G)

Those who play a part in consumerism,

The government is your producer.

Those who are caught up in religious diversity,

The government is your co producer.

Those who get caught up in any form of prejudice

The government is your writer.

Those who play apart in advertisement,

The government is your director.

Those who play apart in radio land,

The government is your soundman.

Those who wear cosmetics and believe surgery makes the person,

The government is your make up artist.

Those who play apart in modern warfare,

You are the government’s stuntman.

I swore on my sacred arm-pit I wasn't goin' to comment on my own blog but couldn't resist, but this is a comment for Leon's poetry so I let me slide. Leon this is so powerful, the government is the puppet master and we are his Punch & Judy. Can't wait for the next installment!

i think this poem could be 2 weeks long because the government govern every part of our everyday lives, and we all willingly or unwilling play a part in their doings. the most basic contribution we make is paying taxes.

and to quote morpheus: "What is the Matrix? Control. The Matrix is a computer-generated dream world built to keep us under control in order to change a human being into this."
