Mind Control

poem by: Anna Fuller
Written on Oct 13, 2016

Within the grey walls they blend ,
sagging faces,
smirking.

Their duty to
unanimously decide
your duty.

Solitary but with the humdrum of your own breathe,you will agree it is not quite hard enough for you yet

Drooling over the intelligence,
involved in remembering,
specifications required           

otherwise,
they won't have you slave away for their game of corporation,
money making,
tax evasion.

No frowning please,
You are now part of their machine.

We are all cogs in some form or another. Reminds me of "Different Like Them". Good poem.
