By the Book

Everything has to be by the book. I hate that book. One By One We are a unit We are given The freedom To speak of something better To live by different mottos To believe in stories of the past Often, we must Live by this book of rules A helpful, Organized book I despise it In this book We are only given The illusion That we own ourselves.
