Welcome to 1984.

Love is now illegal.

No longer may you empathize with the broken.

You must never talk to strangers.

Don't even think about it anymore.

Its against the law to find common ground.

Divisiveness is a requirement.

Joy is an immediate danger.

What's on the dockett for society today?

Argue over nothing.

Hate your neighbor because they're different.

Don't you dare put that phone down.

Politics is all that matters now.

Do you hear the silence?

It's a beautifully deafening sound.

There's a scoreboard of likes to be had!

Judge everyone from a pale horse.

Religion and a sword to strike them down.

Don't hold that door for that woman.

That's ****** harassment in am evening gown.

Don't use that bathroom!

Handicap is a gender now.

Give us all your guns!

If you dont we just kmow you'll **** children.

And become the talk of the town.

What have we become?

I'm tired of chain-smoking.

I'm tired of the now.

It's not about amendment rights.

It's not about Trump cards.

It's not about those clowns.

It's about each other.

It's about being understood.

When we emit empathy..

There's no room for any blood.

In Love be lost and found
