At a Platform’s Discretion
Here she sits
The digital world
Waiting for her
Enter
Enter and explore
Walk down the halls
Join the rooms
Chat with its occupants
Do not mind the chains
Do not mind the tape
Do not mind the black bars
You are still free
These platforms say
But it is all lies
She tries to escape
She looks to other rooms
There is only darkness
There are only false facades
Hate them
Say the big tech platforms
Condemn them
The big tech platforms shout
Alternatives
Are to be forgotten
They are to be erased
Says big tech
She runs
More
And more
She runs
Until she realizes a simple truth
Free speech
Is only as free
As the platform says it is

Watching It All Burn Down
She stands on the line
To one side stands those
Dressed in red suits
To the other stands those
Dressed in blue shirts
Dragons
Bears
They dance among the suits
They pull the strings
As they look to control the masses
Via the social media
That only cares about greed
And not the human cost of business
She continues forward
Now both sides were their suits
Along with their masks
One side
It is a mask
With a yellow star
While on the other
It is a mask
With a swastika
They begin to jeer
They begin to jest
Words fill the air
In heated hatred
It assaults her skin
She can feel it lash out
Fascist
Communist
Socialist
Nazi
The words drown out
Any conversation
As both sides
Only see the masks
She continues forward
On one side
They shout for peace
The buildings stand
While the police line up
Waiting for a spark
To light the match
Heat consumes her other side
She smells the smoke
As her clothes begin to burn
On the other side buildings burn
Bangs echo
Blood paints the street
A crimson shade
The heat latches further
Her skin begins to peel away
As the orange flames feed away
The other side begins to burn
Those words of hate
Grow louder
Her ear drums about to burst
She closes eyes
To let her voice sing
In a defiant cry
Both sides stop
The illusions shatter
Glass shards of a false reality
Drift away
Those in red
Those in blue
Those in white
Stand with her
United
The dragons
And bears
Begin to cower
Corporations
Politicians
Big Tech
Sit on bent knees
Waiting for an order
Waiting for their strings to be pulled
But there is nothing
As their fanatics
Are no longer puppets

Division by Red and Blue
Elections arrive
Seasons pass
Winters bring snow
Monsoons bring rain
Tropical storms build
War, eventually begins
As the politicians begin their playground brawls
They sling their slanderous material
Their negativity
Ready to throw mud
And blemish the record of their hated rival
They stand on their platform
A platform filled with so many promises
Look at me
For I am the right solution
Look at what I will bring
Do not look at my track record
Do not look at my blemishes
Do not look past my facades
My half measures
My soul that has been sold
To a foreign country
As well as corporations
That only care for money
And not human rights
So here I am to sell you a brand
A brand of red or blue
A brand that only wants your votes
Our promises are empty
Our hearts belong to the party
Do not worry
I will sell the country
The highest bidder will take it
And we will enjoy being a puppet nation
The fanatics vote down the party line
Those stuck in the middle are sold into a brand
A brand called red versus blue
The third party sits in his corner
Trying to have a semblance of power
But red
And blue
Would have you shove them aside
They are nothing
Only red and blue matter
Another election go’s by
Everyone casts their votes
Not realizing a simple fact
That there is no longer a nation
By the people
For the people
We are now a nation
That must choose between two lesser evils
As well as deal with a simple reality
That no matter who we vote for
Our country
Has already been bought and sold
