IS IT TOO LATE FOR QUESTIONS?

Plato said something interesting about dictatorships..."Dictatorships naturally arise out of a democracy and the most aggravated form of tyranny and slavery out of the most extreme liberty."

IS IT TOO LATE FOR QUESTIONS?

Can being so free induce the pain

Of leaders who rise above our cause

To control our lives again and again

Manipulating us with oppressive laws?

If leaders choose to circumvent

The rights we own and should demand

And we allow it now with no desent

Can government take us by the hand?

If by the hand they lead us down

A primrose path where all is free

Isn't it true it will come around

That handouts steal our liberty?

By the time we realize it

Will it be too late for questions?

Will we live oppressed and then despise it?

Too late to have learned our lessons.
