Silence! To be silenced!
That fabled nightmare of every dreamer's reality. Unable to speak as you wish. Kept incarcerated by restrictive laws and stone cold hearts!
Ha! Let's give this bleeding heart a lobotomy! We'll mitigate his creativity and keep just the grey substance that obeys all orders without question and issues forth logical thought without meaning!
Now, no more tears will you shed dear lad and nevermore will a colorful idea even think of entering your dead head!
Your sentence will leave you blind for life. A slow, painful death that will cut you into tiny pieces, physically and mentally, year after year, like a swift, unforgiving knife!
We've got you now dear mortal with your face always beaming so bright, but your dreams shall blind us no more weak and foolish child, for we have taken away your piercing sight!

Powerful this strikes at the heart of modern control. Dictating what one must say controls the mind and thereby the actions of the masses. I a rebel refuse to submit to politically correct words and fire my verbal bullets direct to the heart of the enemy. Considered a terrorist and labeled a wild man and barbarian I fight with my only weapons my tongue and pen. Good write my friend and a fave
Thank you. Proud to belong to that Group of Individuals!
You are welcome and so you should.
Michael, I put too much of myself into my writing to read this comfortably…the thought of someone deciding which parts of me I’m allowed to keep scares the hell out of me. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
That’s why the “WORD” must always be stronger than the World!
Only way to get its attention.
Who the Son sets free, is free indeed.
I enjoyed the rant though...
