Humanity Is Ruled, And Caged

there is something wrong.

when the rule of laws require that:
protesters against wars to be hand cuffed, and arrested;
war crimes to be covered, and protected; and
freedom to be controlled and restricted.

there is something wrong.

Humanity has seen such rule of laws before, and
continues to witness such laws grounded even more.

there is something wrong.

humanity is ruled, and caged.
some are caged in mortgage folds.
some are caged in prison strolls.
some are caged in ideologue rolls.
some are caged in poverty, and
left to bemoan.
some are caged in gold, and
 are behold.
some are caged in rule of laws
for empires to hold, and mold.

there is something wrong.

elected leaders sell their soul 
at the alter of Wall Street fold.
psychologist join CIA to
rationalize the torture mold.

there is something wrong.
humanity is ruled and caged..

WE ARE THE WITNESS OF OUR TIME.
