A short poem about the American mindset and the peril we face as we cling to what is left of our individual freedoms. #AskHardQuestions
Go to school, get a job
Buy a car, then get married
Pile up debt, Wear the facade
Don’t look up, ‘til you’re buried
Get lost in the mob
Treat the world like a slob
Become a slave to your job
Then get what you can
Because you’re American
And we deserve it all
So just watch as it falls
Then, get down on your knees
Because we’re no longer free
The most dangerous phrase in the language, ‘We’ve always done it this way!’
Agreed. That and “We’re from the government and we are here to help.”
