It Seems... Poem by DM W

It seems that these corporate reactionaries
Fear our freedom to dissent. They want us all
To think the same way, as far as I can see.
Instead of bridges, they want to build walls.
They fear that we will awaken to the Light:
That's why they oppose consciousness raising.
For they know that in the valley of the blind,
It is always the one-eyed man who is the king.
They want us to be lost among distractions;
Deprived of any real insight or vision.
Indeed, in all truth, they are the killers of dreams.
They only desire our 'happiness' it seems,
On their own terms; within their myopic world view;
Based on their sordid schemes. A reckoning is due!
