Manipulaee Poem by Josh Ras

Bound down now by unseen bonds
In your transparent cell.
You force my body to conform,
But still my mind rebels.

Tell the people what is good,
Punish what is bad.
People never know they’ve lost
Rights none knew they had.

Force beliefs on one and all
Manipulate their mind.
Teach them that true happiness is
Deaf, and dumb, and blind.

Shape their souls and
Make them scared and
Use them for your ends.
A broken spirit is no use, so
See how far it bends.

Tell them that they truly want
What only you provide.
Those who know no other choice are
Always on your side.


Then:


Make the world your research lab.
Hide behind the “normal” war.
Then rip out people’s souls and watch them
Dying on the bloody floor.
