snowden's lament
Posted: June 8th, 2016, 8:24 am
I wish all minds came
with a switch, a way to turn off
the inquisition, or at least
a volume control you could turn
down to the zero of peace
does consciousness
have constitutional rights
it's a fair question when you try to convince
me corporations are people
and citizens are united by immoral papers
so what say ye Infinite Justices
must I obey a five voice minimum
can you read my mind little brother,
'cause the big guy is already reading my e-mail,
my texts, listening to my heartbeats
as I fall asleep, and I'm getting this feeling
there in Intel inside my head, chips
from gaming tables planted below my scalp
'cause I have this new gambling addiction....
want to roll the dice with all my secrets
take away my privacy
you sick fucks,
steal the data you crave, voyeur-pervert
collect the moments of my breath and store them
in a building in Utah, but you will never get
my soul ....
you will never get
my earth
my wind
my fire
with a switch, a way to turn off
the inquisition, or at least
a volume control you could turn
down to the zero of peace
does consciousness
have constitutional rights
it's a fair question when you try to convince
me corporations are people
and citizens are united by immoral papers
so what say ye Infinite Justices
must I obey a five voice minimum

you will never get
my earth

my fire
