Left, right, left, right, left, left,
Lied to so much, hear truth and we're deaf.
Stand straight and attention,
React slow when secret societies get a mention.
Drop down and give 10 press-ups,
Questioning an authority that totally sucks.
Waking people up is forbidden,
History, his story, society, a mental prison.
Marching to death, justice seems out of view,
Do 5 laps around this base and then your through.

Good write SM.
Cheers.
Military service based on blind compliance. Well written
Sadly, yes.
Shaun, you got me with this one. The marching cadence gives the whole piece a sense of relentless forward motion, while the message pushes in the opposite direction...toward questioning, reflection, and independent thought. That tension carries the poem from start to finish. Strong write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Thanks pal, another one where I don't know where it came from lol, Holy Spirit I guess.
Very deep message given to ponder upon👌
