When laws are made to control people's thinking and indoctrinate and manipulate opinion, then we are being ruled by a Government that has no democratic roots, a poignant write, love Dolly x

Too true ...
Comment from Navada
You've used some powerful language and imagery to describe censorship and its impact on people. I also like the defiant tone and the encouragement to stand strong against this behaviour.

Much appreciated ...
Comment from Douglas Goff
You are a mad genius (in a good way) if this is what you produce when you're 'just killing time'..
This was interestingly unique in that the moralistic point is
Presented in a 'matter-of-fact' way.
Very good.

Comment from Yusita
Wow, this is a great poem that eloquently summarizes a sad reality. I loved how your lines were short but very powerful and loaded with truth. This is a great piece. Well done.

Thank you it is dedicated to another poet who has just been imprisoned ...
-
Oh wow... I had no idea. I'm not quite sure what to say. This is so sad to know :(
-
Well I'm not being arrested but I heard on the news of a poet in Russia being arrested so I thought I would dedicate this one ...
-
Oh, I see :/ So sad how crazy things are in Russia. Lots of injustice and such. This was a great piece with a worthy dedication.

Thank you ... we don't realise how fortunate we are in the west till you understand oppression

This is so very true! We take so many things for granted?
Comment from Daylily
This is an excellent example of what it means to read between the lines. America is no longer the country I grew up in. Children today have no idea what real freedom means, such as going out to play with neighbor kids after dinner and staying out by ourselves until it gets dark. It means not being concerned of getting labeled as something you are not just for discussing the truth about current injustice situations, and not being alarmed like many patriots are today with Constitutional laws being ignored. Yes, this is a different world that is trying hard to kill freedom. -- I am sorry I have no sixes left for this posting.
