Frogs by Barrier

Wake up
They’re here to save you
Experts in deceit
Immune to dissent
Feeding lies
Through the eye of a needle
And a sheep’s soft coat to soothe you

Eyes wide
Stupefied
Muted the cries
of ineffable horror
Controlled disorder
Take your number

Robbed of birth and death
They own the life between
Gates locked
Sentenced to the screen
No men but the great We
One nation under surveillance
Frogs to a boil
Slow demoralization

Eyes wide
Stupefied
Muted the cries
of ineffable horror
Controlled disorder
Take your number

Bewildered, then self-sedated
We, competing copers, become
Symbiotic scapegoats
Divided
Conquered

With all our pointed fingers
Immortalized in ash
With all our pointed fingers
Immortalized in ash
