You clock out as the countdown begins again for the next day of work, Yet instead of innovation we prefer to have our icons twerk. To devalue a dollar and make us materialistic, With goals so shallow and unrealistic. Yet we sit and swallow down the propaganda of the world, Forced to catch the messages that are hurled. Take a breath and pick up the philosophical tote, By making you think before going to vote.

About this poem:
Growing up we are taught that the definition to insanity is repeating the same action over and over again with the idea you will receive a different result. Yet every 2 or 4 years we vote for these "people" who lie to us just so they can pad their resume.
