Democracy Is Dead
A Political Poem By: Ken Cruz
Democracy is dead...
Masked and terminated with a bullet to the head..
Silenced by a label of disinformation while its lies we are fed
Asked to cover our eyes, ears and mouths as we tred
Democracy is dead
Amendments striped one by one
As if by some morbid robber with a gun
Only they don’t do this for fun
And most of us remain blinded as if we were staring at the sun
By the time they realize it will already be done
Democracy is dead
Somehow I know you can sense the dread
Or do you rejoice in false happiness instead
Not realizing until you can’t buy a loaf of bread
Democracy is dead
Our voices silences like a muzzled dog
Informations lost to googles fog
Follow the masses and dare not ask, or be ridiculed like a hog
Float along and raise no waves like a drifting log
Don’t question or doubt, play your part like a proper cog
Democracy is dead
Our freedoms pouring out like blood crimson red
Or a stuck pig dying slow to blood shed
So say goodnight as our liberties are put to bed
For democracy is dead 💀...
