Old Teenage Poems - A democratic society?

2014-11-07 32

Someone once told me
'It's a human right to speak your mind'
But if you pay a fee
It's easier, you'll find

And I have heard that democracy
is the way in wich we rule our land
Yet somehow hypocracy
is a word closer to hand

When you speak of freedom
in this world did you think through?
Did you realize that to some
that would not seem quite true

Did it ever cross your mind,
go through those gray cells of yours,
that the world you live in
Can't be a private force?
