A Mind Off-Grid, Nr.02 - Who Is Peter Piper?
Peter Piper picked a pickled puppet president
who pouted propaganda which Peter Piper picked
as packs of politicians pushed through perverted policies
despite the people’s protests which were properly proposed
though Peter Piper personally pretended he was perfect
and demanding he be worshipped
plundered people’s power ... and peppered them with piss …
perhaps one day we’ll notice … that something is amiss.

This was pretty good and caught my attention. Wonderful phrasing and alliterations =33
All in all thought provoking and well written all at once.
