Children fight,
Call each other names,
And are branded racist.
A grandmother
Protects her home against a mob,
And is arrested.
A couple
Oppose taxes used to promote the pink vote,
And are branded homophobic.
Oppose ID cards
As curtailed liberty,
And be branded a terrorist.
Raise you voice
Against “The Word”
And the Thought Police knock on your door.
Public servants
Demonstrate major incompetence
And are promoted.
Murderers and rapists
Are set free
To re-offend at will.
Politicians rail
Against modern immorality,
And are caught with their trousers down.
Walk in the street
And a thousand electronic eyes
Watch your every move.
Your thoughts
Your life
Are not yours.
The Word is everything,
All else is heresy.
Big Brother wears a suit.
Truly, the lunatics have taken over the asylum.
