Hi Mud;

Paradise Lost, Again

Do you remember what John Milton wrote?
a great poem of note,
he called it Paradise Lost,
we now know what that cost

Now a second Paradise is going away
because we’re being led astray
Americans don’t question anymore,
they accept any political whore

How sad, how very sad
to lose the freedoms that we had
what’s that you say?
has my mind gone astray?

Well let’s review what I write,
hopefully it will shed some light
as liberty takes flight,
while the thieves work through the night

I see laws being passed,
assuring our freedom will not last,
done in the name of security,
soon, we’ll no longer be free

They passed the “patriot law”
and finance reform,
each is flawed,
serfdom will be the norm

Free speech will be restricted,
demonstrations interdicted,
a czar will judge our intent,
we’ll wonder where our freedom went

These people are truly evil,
intent on causing upheaval,
in our values system,
fulfilling their mission

Look what they’ve done to our nation
taking over our schools,
they are an aberration,
turning out non-thinking fools

That’s why the Clintons walk free,
also Terry Mac, Reno and Kennedy,
they’re all involved in serious crimes,
yet not one is doing time

The majority have been put to sleep,
having been molded into sheep,
except for us who speak out loud,
refusing to go along with the crowd

Maybe we’ll win, maybe we’ll lose,
it depends on what Americans choose,
will integrity and honor prevail,
will these criminals be sent to jail?

And the beat goes on
