Thought Police



There are far too many people wielding too much power today,
Determined that they shall control not just what people say,
But also what they think as well, believing they should lose
Not just the right to say things, but to ponder any views
Within their brains which don’t agree with what their rulers wish,
As if they’d no more intellect than animals or fish.
Let’s hope there never comes a time when thinking’s not allowed
And harbouring a thought’s the same as saying it out loud.
It’s happened in the past, and well could happen once again,
In any countries paranoid dictatorships may reign.
