once a government of democrats and republicans,
resided in Washington D.C.,
far far away,
now omnipresent,
spies,
from both sides,
everywhere,
watching how I pray,
filming what I do,
what I say,
privacy,
no longer a right,
the cellphone and camera,
used with delight,
creating a narrative for the world to see,
whether true or false,
it doesn’t matter,
comrades and party members,
no longer far far away.
Douglas Polk
