A Call for Sanity

Uniforms scare me
they take people
and conform them
into dictators
give a cop a rule
and watch the breadth
he takes to regulate
other people's lives

Lawmakers
dottering fools
turning people
into lawbreakers
rules are thinking stops
places to look ahead
for trouble
yield signs on the road
of life, not stop signs
STOP prevents all progress
STOP ruins mental imagery
STOP breaks momentum
STOP beats people up
STOP beats people down
STOP is violence enforced
STOP telling me what to do

amazing how jurisdiction
ultimately lies within people
government overlays are callous
equally looting bread from tables
while providing circus distractions
to feed a churning prophet machine
currently on autopilot abandoned
to the drones of bureaucracy
and their STOP signs
