An extraordinary American,
Commendable and cowardly,
Happily afraid,
“For your own safety.”

Patriotic and pathetic,
This act and that,
“Terrorism!”
Rally the fearmongers!

Safety or freedom?
Freedom!
But no,
Too stupid to know what’s good for you.

Homeland security,
Homeland sequestered,
Homeland sadism,
Homeland sedition.

Move now!
To the schools!
A gun in every hallway,
Fear in every child.

No earbuds!
“For your own safety.”
I’m tired of,
“Be afraid, very afraid.”

Blood of you and me,
Used to oil up the war machine,
Drank like water by our masters,
We fall to our knees, knife in back.

Unquestioned obedience for safety.
Nonexistent safety.
But wait!
They’re listening!

Sieg Heil to our master!
SIEG HEIL to the power!
Sieg Heil to the AUTHORITY!
SIEG HEIL TO THE STATE!
