Death Of Democracy
America’s Dead Democracy
Poet Society
Federalists putting death
knell legislation
Where the Minority
Masters the Majority
Masses instilling Autocracy ~
over Democracy.
Guardian Sentinels sailing
open minded Freedom
Dew prance alight
Liberty word wing
wind wry spells
Sword paper verse
cut in Our
Free Speech Press Rights
Bee Declaration of Independence
pedestal stoic stand.
They say in America,
we can build a field
a Lit Our dreams
Butt we musk pay Master
pious pied piper
profiteers fees
Whence raked over,
it leafs poets
bankrupt dispossessed
Paying writing despair taxes,
mid poetic eye owe
you sighs.
What are “We The People”
Too Bee devoid of Democracy
But Master skeletal keys
shackled conforming
clone drones
Whence One Man
and/or One Party rules
absolute supreme
Dictating At Will Aristocratic
Executive Privilege superiority.
America’s Dead Democracy
Poet Society deep sigh
A lone prone
mid a room womb tomb
crypt quivers
Why believe in
Our American Dream
any more fraught,
Any less as stains dye
Our words legacy ~
for naught.

So the vast majority seem to want to replace neighborhood watch with neighborhood militias in the streets marching like Brownshirts and wiping out any unsavory types that are not like "us."
Good strong Hollywood or TV idols, backed by a larger military and police force, in addition to our personal guns and favorite neighborhood militia making sure that we have plenty of overkill for dealing internally rather than beating up small countries anymore to make sure that our military-industrial complex gets fed with taxpayer monies.
Yes Ben Franklin, truth telling through the Almanac has been replaced by gossip from talking heads and media and diplomacy like you did in Europe is being replaced by the buddy system of autocratic aristocrats, absolute loyalty demanding despots and dictators. The general public wants to be told what to do. We want to have no blame for making wrong decisions. We want our despots to make all of them for us, and then blame them mightily when they fail.
