Progress in Reverse

 
turn your eyes into the upheaval
the foundation of the world
is hanging by a thread
look . . .
everyone is losing freedom’s light
one by one
country by country
what is taking the lights’ place
is the suffocating
governmental interference
in your life
even here
never thought it could happen here
but the proof is before us
and our vocal
protests fall on uncaring ears
of the government and the sheeple
