Hijak their words.
Hijak their silence and
assume it's a 'yes'
when it's 'not a no.'
Tell them bad air is
all their fault.
Tell them how holy
is water, to hijak
their god.
Tell them nation
comes first, tell them
it's for the greater good.
Tell them individuality
is a sin and sacrifice is
the only way to go.
Punch holes in their
dialects with a
compromised vocabulary,
and rinse their history
with facts that are
blasphemous to deny.
Make compliance a
virtue. make questioning
a sign of betrayal.
Repeat it. Sharpen it.
Sanctify it until
language forgets
how to resist.
You're champions of
democracy already,
Yet, you choose to conduct
elections now and then.
Not for power but
check the grammar
of your propaganda-
Which is foolproof.
and we, with bit of
rationality left, are fools,
to think, you aren't
Inevitable.
