PRISONERS OF OUR FATE
One way or other. we're all, by chance, trapped by happenstance and circumstance, locked in the grip of sick relationships. Unsure of who and what we are, we endure.
We cover up the way we think we are with thick-skinned hides that keep panic deep inside and control the way we deal with real emotions. There's only one key that can unlock the cell to our superficiality, a quality foreign to our personality. That key is total honesty.
Do law abiding citizens recognize lies they tell themselves? Shelves of good intent are filled with laws to enforce a worthy cause, buried in words of wasted debate by elected fools who make or break rules at their behest because they know what's best for the rest of us.
.
Result: the world's in a mess, The stressed remain the unwilling guests of those who believe illegality and criminality are the only true reality.

Those are three great entries today, Ed - thank you!
The subject matter is serious, sad, but your rhyming style lifts the gloom. All the issues you raise are so very important.
